Mayor Sarno and the school committee opened with a student speak-out featuring multiple middle- and high-school students. Gabriela Torres (Duggan Academy) described enrichments and a positive school climate; several other students (Kobe Ni, Josiah Williams, Honesty Smith, Ileana/Eliana Reyes and others) described academic and extracurricular experiences and asked for expanded opportunities (e.g., middle-school sports, future student-rep consideration).
