Mayor Judith Flanagan Kennedy, Superintendent Catherine Latham, and Lynn School Committee member, Rick Starbard, met with government officials to discuss the needs and concerns of the school on Oct. 17. Principal Kevin Rittershaus guided them on a tour through the halls of the school, which was built in 1916, into the 230-seat auditorium, and into classrooms. There are water-damaged ceilings and outdated forced water heaters. The middle school is also without a library, elevator, or science lab. “The heating system is archaic. We have sporadic heat,” said Principal Rittershaus. “Some rooms might be 90° and others 3 Thursday, October 23, 2014 Page 3 T H E LY N N J O U R N A L Market // CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 riety of flavored popcorn in the store. Another feature will be the ‘Butcher Block’ feature where Certified Angus Beef (CAB) will be highlighted prominently. The CAB products debuted about three years ago at Market Basket’s Westfield store and Lambert said it was an instant hit. He believes it will be reach the same popularity in Revere. He said the program is a non-profit comprised of cattle producers who choose only the most premium grades of beef for certification – that being based on fat marbling, bone structure and heritage of the animal. It all equals out into a mouth-watering steak or a scrumptious roast. “Once you’ve tried it, for $1 more, you won’t eat another piece of meat other than CAB again,” Lambert said. McLean said customers can be assured to have a full variety of healthy options integrated within the aisles and shelves. This, he said, is something that is necessary for a modern grocery store in accommodating new ways of eating – whether for better health or for medical reasons. “There are gluten free products throughout the store and the amounts of healthy products are increasing,” he said. “It’s not your grandmother’s supermarket with just meat and potatoes. We have specialty foods, organic foods, gluten free foods and low sodium foods integrated into the store.” Added Lambert, “A lot of stores do the store within a store, but we don’t do that. We have it integrated into the store and printed on the display tags on the shelf. Customers can see it’s gluten free right there and they don’t have to go looking for it in another part of the store.” The Revere store will also be a major job provider locally. Lambert said there are 460 new employees at the store, with 75 percent being from Revere. Another 100 employees have transferred into the Revere store from other nearby locations. And in addition to the new things and old things in the front of the store that have made Market Basket so popular with customers – and so eagerly anticipated in Revere – the store will be a marvel of efficiency within its backroom operations. McLean and Lambert said the Revere store will have 90 percent LED lighting with some solar lights mixed in. There is a mandate to recycle – keeping trash in a separate stream from cardboard and plastic. One sign in the back near the trash compactor read, “Do your part! Always Recycle! Do Not Throw Clean Cardboard or plastic into trash compactors. Doing so Throws Away Money.” In that spirit, virtually nothing is wasted. Cardboard is bundled for recycling. Clean plastic is wrapped into bales for reuse. Even produce that has gone beyond it’s date isn’t thrown out. Instead, Lambert said it is sent up to a New Hampshire farm where it’s used to feed pigs. “When you’re talking about a company, you want to know if they treat they’re employees well,” McLean said. “You want to know if they treat their cus- The Produce Department features regular and organic vegetables and is aligned with some frozen foods. tomers well. But you also want to know what are their environmental initiatives. Those initiatives say a lot about the personality and the mindset of a company.” And that kind of company mindset between Market Basket and its customers – after a harrowing summer of uncertainly – have never been more aligned. And in Revere, that alignment will mean a line of folks ready to come through the doors on Oct. 26.

Demoulas during the company’s issues. “It’s a very exciting time in our company right now and these stores are a nod to our customers who have supported us the past 100 years. We are approaching our 100th anniversary in 2017 and so it’s that much more exciting for our company. As Arthur T. says, ‘We’re in the people business first and, above all else, we’re looking out for our customers even when they’re not looking.’” The additional stores to open before the end of this year will be in Waltham at the old Polaroid site and in Littleton. Stores in Attleboro and Athol will open in the 1st Quarter of 2015. The Revere store will be under Store Director Ron Lambert, who is a store opening specialist and has been with the company since 1976. The Revere store will be 80,000 sq. ft., which is a bit smaller compared to the 135,000 sq. ft. Goliath of a store in Chelsea. However, Lambert said they believe the size is perfect for the Revere area and they have streamlined operations in the storeroom to give as much shopping space as possible. “Everything the Chelsea store has, we have here,” said McLean. “We’ll have the Market’s Café, the Market’s Kitchen, including the sushi, and we’ll have a few new things too. We will have a new demo station in the back of this store that Chelsea doesn’t have. We’ll also have a Butcher Block section for premium Certified Angus Beef products.” Lambert said the “tasting station” is likely to be a hit with customers – outfitted with cooking equipment, a Bose PA system for sound and ample space for customers to listen to vendors and taste products. “The tasting station is something that’s a new and unique way for our vendors to come in and test out some of their products with customers,” Lambert said. “It could be hummus one day or a fish demonstration the next day. There are a lot of different things we’ll have there. It’s a great way to put new products in the spotlight for our customers.” He said the first demonstration will likely be a new popcorn seasoning product – with customers able to try out a va- 4 T H E LY N N J O U R N A L Page 4 LYNN DEMOCRATIC CITY COMMITTEE Thursday, October 23, 2014 GOVERNOR DEVAL PATRICK VISITS LYNN TO HOST ANNUAL UNITY BREAKFAST The Lynn Democratic City Committee's Annual Unity Breakfast will be held on Sunday, October 26, 2014, from 8:30-11a.m. at the Porthole Restaurant, 98 The Lynnway, Lynn.

Wynn to hold informational forums for employment/vendor questions As soon as Wynn Resorts received the Greater Boston casino license, the calls began pouring in from potential employees and vendors. All of them had questions. Now, through a series of six information sessions, Wynn Resorts hopes to provide some initial answers to the throngs of folks wanting to know how to get involved in the region’s fledgling casino industry. Robert DeSalvio, senior vice president of development for Wynn, said an “incredible amount” of folks reached out to them wanting to know how to gain employment in the casino, how to become a vendor for the casino and how to get involved in the construction of the casino. The calls came so quick that DeSalvio said it was time to conduct some informational forums. “It’s probably too early to run traditional job forums because we’re still early in the start up mode, but it’s never too early to run information seminars,” DeSalvio said. “We took a look at where all the calls were coming from and cast a wide net to get a good cross section of people who had questions. That’s how we came up with locations for these six forums in multiple communities. It’s important to do some information sharing with people.” The forums started this Monday in Malden, and continued on Tuesday, Oct. 21 in Cambridge and Wednesday, Oct. 22 in Everett. Other forums include: •Thursday, Oct. 23, Charlestown, Bunker Hill Community College (250 Rutherford Ave.), 6-7:30 p.m. •Wednesday, Oct. 29, Chelsea, Mystic Brewery (174 Williams St.). 6-7:30 p.m. •Thursday, Oct. 30, Lynn, North Shore Community Center (McGee Building, 300 Broad St.), 6-7:30 p.m. At the forums will be representatives from Gilbane Construction, representatives from the building trades, and licensing information for potential vendors/employees. “We’re trying to cover all the questions most frequently asked,” DeSalvio said. One of those questions includes the fact that all vendors and potential employees have to be vetted by the MGC and licensed. That process will include a thorough background check and vetting. “We want to make sure people understand that process,” said DeSalvio. “After going through this in three different states now, anyone who has had any experience with our industry understands it’s important to the Gaming Commission and to PLEASE RECYCLE THIS NEWSPAPER us as operators that people clear this kind of a background check.” Wynn Resorts estimates that there will be 4,000 construction jobs, 4,000 permanent casino jobs, and some $120 million per year spent with vendors providing goods/services to the casino. The average salary is estimated at $50,000 with benefits, according to Wynn Resorts.

As it turns out, they had good reason to feel good about the high-stakes exam. DeFillipo earned a perfect score in English Language Arts while Severance was perfect on the math MCAS, earning the praise of their principal and guidance counselors. “These two students are examples of hard work paying off,” English Principal Thomas Strangie said. “It also shows that the teachers at English are doing everything they can to provide the opportunity for every student to be successful.” DeFillipo said even though he “wasn’t nervous going in,” he took advantage of the extra time allotted to complete the essay on the MCAS, staying until almost everyone else had already left. “I put a lot of time into the test,” he said. He also credited his English teachers – Judy Mishkin last year and Nicole Bene in ninth grade – with preparing him well for the MCAS. “The teachers put a lot of time into preparing us,” said DeFillipo, who has Michael Guanci for AP English this year. A lifelong Lynn resident, DeFillipo attended Sisson elementary and Pickering middle schools. He participates in speech competitions and drama at English, and serves as a mentor to students at Marshall Middle School and students in the Life Skills program. “Jake is very focused on his education,” said guidance counselor Matthew Wilkins. “He is always looking to improve him- NEW ENGLAND PROFESSIONAL CHEERLEADERS ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Black NFL Alumni - NE Chapter OPEN TO THE PUBLIC FOR GRADES 5&UP!

He lives with his parents, Bobbiejo and Tim, and his younger brother, Jared, a student at Pickering. Severance said there was only one question she thought she might have erred on, so she was confident she did very well. “I’ve always been good in math,” said Severance, who had Tom Smiley for algebra last year and Barbara Funicella for geometry as a freshman. She has Michael Swartz for pre-calculus this year. “I studied a lot of geometry, since that is one of my weaker points. Our algebra teacher gave us practice problems from previous tests, and I did those. He made sure we knew everything that could possibly be known,” she added. Severance, who attended Sewell-Anderson elementary and Salem Academy Charter schools, is a football and basketball cheerleader and a new member of the math team. “They were hunting me down when they heard about the perfect score,” she said. Calling math her “favorite subject by far,” Severance said she hopes to take it as a major in college and perhaps pursue a ca- Jake DeFillipo and Ariana Severance are pictured with principal Thomas Strangie. reer in accounting. “Ariana represents the best that Lynn English High School has to offer,” said guidance counselor Kara Baletsa. “She is excellent academically and very involved in extracurricular activities, and she manages to balance everything. She and Jake serve as role models for their peers.” Severance, who scored advanced in ELA and proficient on the science MCAS, lives with her parents, Christine and Michael, and her younger brother, Mathieu, a student at Breed Middle School. Senior Torri Bene recorded a perfect score on the English MCAS exam in 2013 and 2012 graduate Sean Gately aced the math exam in 2010. “I’m very proud of our school and our students,” Strangie said. “It’s an honor to be the principal here.” THINGS To Do Boston Book Festival The annual Boston Book Festival will be held Oct. 23-25, offering more than 50 free sessions, activities, keynote speakers, family events, and much more, at Boston Common Hotel, 40 Trinity Place; Church of the Covenant, 67 Newbury St.; Emmanuel Church, 15 Newbury St.; First Church, 66 Marlborough St.; the French Cultural Center, 53 Marlborough St.; Old South Church, 645 Boylston St.; Storyville, 90 Exeter St.; Trinity Church, 206 Clarendon St.; and outdoor locations at Copley Square.

Though Classical played well enough to win, Winthrop pounded out a 28-14 victory and guaranteed a share of the divisional title. The game was highlighted by a number of Page 9 T H E LY N N J O U R N A L big plays, including an 86-yard kickoff return by Winthrop running back Reise Turransky to start the second half. That put the game at 14-0, but Classical didn’t give up, pulling within four points with 10 minutes left in the game. However, fumbles and turnovers by Classical and stout defense by Winthrop stymied any comeback attempt by vs. Winthrop PHOTOS BY SHAWN BLACK the Lynn team. Winthrop’s Zach Deeb showed up big on defense with two interceptions.

Tower Foundation Children’s Friend and Family Services has been awarded a 3-year grant from the Peter and Elizabeth C. Tower Foundation for its Early Childhood Mental Health Initiative. Goals of the project include Early Screening and Referral, Parent Education and Support and Behavioral Health Navigation. “We are so grateful to the Peter and Elizabeth C. Tower Foundation for its generous funding as it allows us to provide vital support to children and families in our service area,” says Carla M. Saccone, Children’s Friend and Family Services President and Chief Executive Officer. Early Screening and Referral will increase the identification and referral of young children experiencing or at risk for experiencing mental health issues. Children’s Friend and Family Services will be seeking increased collaboration with community partners to raise awareness about its Early Childhood Mental Health Initiative, share Early Childhood Mental Health Screening Tool Kits and design a streamlined referral system. Thanks to the funding from the Peter and Elizabeth C. Tower Foundation Children’s Friend and Family Services will also be able to provide early childhood focused comprehensive assessment and evidence-based parent education and family support and treatment to young children experiencing or at risk for experiencing mental health issues and their parents/caregivers. Forty Children’s Friend and Family Services staff will be trained in the evidence-based Standard Triple P - Positive Parenting Program, a ten session program that aims to prevent/treat serious behavioral, emotional and developmental problems in children by enhancing the knowledge, skills, and confidence of parents. The grant will also increase the ability for families to navigate the mental health system to find the appropriate services for their child and family at the right time. Over the course of the three years, Chil- dren’s Friend and Family Services will increase its expertise in navigation to yield the development of family-friendly, multi-modal resources that will teach sustainable skills for parents and caregivers in navigating the system of behavioral health care. Children’s Friend supports over 3,000 children and their families from Essex County each year with programs focusing on Mental Health Counseling, Wraparound Services, In Home Therapy, Therapeutic Mentoring, Juvenile Court Services, Teen Parenting Program, and Volunteer Youth Mentoring. Children's Friend is one of the oldest and largest community-based counseling organizations for children and families. Offices are located in Salem, Lynn, Lawrence and Gloucester.

Tower Foundation supports community programming that results in children, adolescents, and young adults affected by substance abuse, learning disabilities, mental illness, and intellectual disabilities achieving their full potential.
