Richmond Talks About the Issues

SOMERVILLE – In a new video series posted to www.rossrichmond.org, candidate Ross Richmond discusses key issues in the race for School Committee in Ward 5. In the series, Richmond outlines his vision for Somerville’s schools.

“I want to put schools at the center of everything we do here in Somerville,” says Richmond, “When we put schools first, we not only improve the prospects for our children, but for our city. I created this video series to begin an online conversation focused on putting schools at the center of everything we do."

Richmond comes from a family of educators and draws on his experience working on education policy at the State House to inform his positions. In the series, he talks about ensuring pre-k for every child, supporting students with disabilities, improving the high school guidance experience, and the need for strong neighborhood schools.
