Get the Scoop on Somerville Schools

An open meeting for curious parents (and future parents)!
Tuesday, July 31st 7:00-8:15 PM
Held at 128 Willow Avenue, Somerville (Thalia Tringo Real Estate office)
Food and beverages will be provided.
You hear different things from different people about our schools. How do you know what to believe? It helps if you have the facts as well as the anecdotal information from parents with kids in school now.
Join me, and some other parents with kids in various schools (and maybe even a student or two), for a brief presentation on the Somerville Public Schools, K-12.
There will be plenty of time for questions, answers, comments, and concerns!
Attendance is free but please reserve a seat so we can plan the food (food courtesy of Thalia Tringo!!!) by emailing pbockelman AT aol.com

Paul Bockelman, Chair, School Committee

P.S. If you can't make this meeting, I will be hosting others in the future.

Urban Promise church is now called Responsible Grace

[ron_newman]

The church at the southeast corner of Elm and Russell streets, which was until recently called Urban Promise, is now called Responsible Grace. It is still a Church of the Nazarene.

This church lost its original name in a trademark dispute with a New Jersey church.

The Post-Meridian Radio Players will perform Summer Radio Mystery Theatre there, this Friday and Saturday. Theatre@First also sometimes holds auditions or performances there.

For sale: 5200BTU Frigidaire AC, 800W Hamilton Beach juicer and an electric wine opener

All of it is in a very good condition - the juicer has only been used for a couple of months, the wine opener is brand new and has been used only once and the AC was bought second hand (from the Davis Square community actually) but never installed or used (although I did test it to make sure it works).
