In a recent government meeting, the absence of the mayor was noted as the committee proceeded with recognitions. Mr. Sunella led the discussion by honoring the memory of Steven McDonald, a long-time educator known for his dedication to special needs students and his role as a soccer coach. Sunella described McDonald as an influential figure in the lives of many, emphasizing his nurturing spirit and commitment to education. The committee observed a moment of silence in his memory.
Following the recognitions, the committee moved on to the consent calendar, which was unanimously approved through a roll call vote. The meeting continued with no reports from student representatives and no public comments registered.
Dr. Macomba then presented the Super Attendance Report, highlighting the Mass Association of School Superintendents Awards. These awards recognize high school students who have excelled academically, based on criteria such as class rank and recommendations from school staff. The meeting concluded with a focus on celebrating academic achievements within the community.
