Committee hears proposal to sell engraved pavers to raise funds for Revere High stabilization account
Summary
Committee member Kingston asked the mayor to reexamine a council motion proposing tiered engraved‑paver sales to raise money for the Revere High School stabilization fund; the mayor said staff will consult the school project manager and consider a rollout.
School committee member Mister Kingston raised a proposal on Sept. 9 to establish a program selling engraved walkway pavers as a fundraiser for the Revere High School stabilization fund. Kingston described a prior council motion that suggested tiered donation levels (red $100; white $250; blue $500; gold $1,000; glass $5,000; metal $10,000) and asked the mayor to consider restarting the idea and publicizing it.
Mayor Keith said he would review the prior motion and discuss the idea with the school project manager and staff, noting that the high‑school construction timeline (a multi‑year project) could provide time to develop a program and place the pavers as part of landscaping or an entryway. Committee members offered informal support and suggested looking at previous local examples for implementation ideas. No formal vote or specific fundraising plan was approved at the meeting.
