To the Honorable Board:

 

My Administration convened the Somerville Community Cabinet in partnership with the Somerville Public Schools to embark on a process that is focused on creating integrated systems of opportunity and support from early childhood through higher education. The Cabinet is a cross-sector team made up of the superintendent, my office, health & human services, and community and civic leaders.

 

The Somerville Community Cabinet is focused on developing a comprehensive plan for access to high-quality preschool, expanded out-of-school time, and universal kindergarten readiness that supports the intellectual and social-emotional growth of all children.

 

I respectfully request that the President of the Board of Aldermen consider appointing a member of the Board of Aldermen to join the Community Cabinet.

 

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

 

Respectfully,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
