SCSS first Catholic mid-dle school in the Arch-diocese of Boston to usethis technology for class-room instruction.

Beginning this September,every student in Grades 6 – 8 atSt. Catherine of Siena School

will have an iPad2 as a valuabletool for learning. The iPad2 willbe a significant part of the learn-ing experience of every middleschool student and will more ef-fectively prepare them to be highschool and college-ready. St.Catherine’s students will use theiPads for class work and home-

work as well as to communicate,collaborate, read assignments,take notes, organize their sched-ules, and do research in all sub-ject areas. With this progressiveinitiative, St. Catherine of SienaSchool will be the first Catholicmiddle school in the Archdio-cese of Boston to use one-to-oneiPads for instruction.

Teachers received iPads in Julyand began training and researchsessions and experimented onthe best classroom applicationsguided by Jean Harr, ComputerTeacher, and Brian Vitarisi, aparent of two children at theschool who conducts technologyeducation classes for teachers inBoston. In addition, math teach-ers Elaine Putnam and SeanRegan and religion and historyteacher Brian Delaney spent twodays at Boston College in inten-sive workshops sponsored by theCatholic Schools Foundation forCatholic school educators.

“Catholic schools have alwaysviewed academic excellence asan expression of Catholic faithand values," Principal MaryRusso said. "By having our stu-dents and teachers use iPads forteaching and learning, we expectthem to develop deeper learningand a greater facility with ana-lyzing and solving problems asthey go out to serve the world.”

The Norwood TONY (TenOutstanding Norwood Youths)Awards were initiated over 40years ago to recognize excep-tional Norwood youths for theirvoluntary contributions to thecommunity. Through anony-mous reviews of the student'svolunteer record and a 300-wordessay, the Norwood Masons,who acquired the program 17years ago, named the 2012TONY Award winners at a ban-quet held January 30. The awardincludes a citation from Gover-nor Patrick, a plaque from thelodge, a $1,000 savings bondand a gift card from Perk's cof-feehouse. Two supplementaryawards also included an addi-tional $500 savings bond.

Local Town Pages is also rec-ognizing these admirable youngadults with a profile of each stu-dent each month in our newspa-per. Norwood High Schoolgraduate Owen Smith is the sev-enth student profile in our 2012TONY Award series.

Eighteen year-old Owen Smithwaited anxiously as nine names,including his twin sister Molly,were called for the 2012 TONY

Awards. He heard the name hewas waiting for when the tenthand final winner was announced.

"I was really nervous and onceI got it I was really relieved,"Smith said. "I wasn't necessarilyexpecting to win the award, butI was pleased I got the award."

By evidence of these compas-sionate siblings, active commu-nity service is a fundamentalpractice in the Smith householdand this young generous volun-teer began that lesson early inmiddle school through hischurch during summer serviceweek. Through Saint Catherineof Siena Parish, Smith visitedthe Pine Street Inn, the EllisNursing Home and the PerkinsSchool for the Blind serving din-ners, playing Bingo with theEllis residents and helping thePerkins School clean and organ-ize their grounds and facility. Infact, Smith so enjoyed his expe-riences he has volunteered in theevent every summer vacationsince.

"I really have fun doing it,"Smith said. "It's nice to be appre-ciated for your work and just to

even talk to different peo-ple and age levels. Just tobe able to connect with dif-ferent groups of people isinteresting and really im-portant."

Smith also participated intwo service retreats thepast two years throughHunger for Justice, whichfeeds the homeless inBoston and conducts otherprojects, such as cleaning aYMCA. During that time,volunteers also fasted for30 hours and slept in card-board boxes overnight toexperience the difficult cir-cumstances homeless peo-ple have to endure.

"It was a unique retreatthat I was able to do,"Owen said. "I thought itwould be a cool way tomeet people and experi-ence something I never tried be-fore."

Smith was also very involvedvolunteering at St. Catherine's inNorwood in alter service, as a re-ligious education teacher andwith a youth group. He alsoworked in the rectory and themaintenance department lastyear. He also was one of twowinners awarded the St. Timo-thy Award this year through theArchdiocese of Boston which is

bestowed for character, leader-ship and service in the churchand community.

At Norwood High School,Smith has been on the NationalHonor Society and was vicepresident this year, the NationalArt Honor Society, and servicedas co-secretary this year, was aSAAD (Students Against De-structive Decisions) officer andtutored at the Cleveland Elemen-tary and Norwood High School.

He also somehow foundtime in his schedule forathletics and was on thecross country, indoor trackand the tennis teams.

He used and shared hisathletic abilities to helpraise awareness and volun-teer in the Walk for Hungerthis year and Relay forLife, the Special Olympicsand coaching middleschool summer tennis lastyear.

Smith is attending theUniversity of Notre Damein Indiana this Septemberand will likely major in aliberal arts program, possi-bly sociology or psychol-ogy. A Notre Damealumnus is already in thefamily as Smith's father at-tended graduate school, butthere are many reasons for

his college choice. Smith has al-ways been a lifelong school fanand its catholic roots support hisbackground and interests.

"They have lots of church,community service and intramu-ral sports so I know I'll stay in-volved out there," Smith said.

Every day we hear from peopleabout their pets in which they needto surrender for one reason or an-other. Without trying to be judg-mental we try to assist as many aswe have the resources for. We feelthe ones we rescue are the luckyones as they will never be in jeop-ardy of losing their lives due to lackof space or their health ailments.

This list of things for people tothink about before and during theirlives with pets is aimed to assist inthis overwhelming problem amongall shelters and rescue groups.

Allergies are one of the mostcommon reasons for surrendering apet. Before adding a pet to yourfamily, make sure everyone in thehome can tolerate the animal ofchoice. Visit the type of pet at ashelter and see how everyone does.

Prepare for potential allergy re-sources in case new family mem-bers become or allergic.

Think of your new pet as a perma-nent fixture in your family. They areand should never be treated as dis-posable.

Think about what it will entailowning this pet now and in theyears to come; time, finances, homepreparation, training and other sim-ilar things.

Indoor cats especially, live longlives in excess of 18 years free ofun-treatable ailments. Medical careis still very important in all pet own-ership and needs to be consideredwhen taking one in.

Dogs, require exercise, play timeand obedience training to makethem healthy happy parts of any

family. Lack of these things lead tounhappy dogs and unhappy dogowners.

Consider your life now and howyou expect it to change in the yearsto come. Though you can not pre-dict the future you should considerthe potential for drastic changeslike; job re-location, addition ofchildren or other pets, movementfrom apartment to house or chang-ing of apartments and financial sta-bility to name a few.

Consider your family and friendcircle for potential caretakers if any-thing were to happen to you. Allfamily members need to be onboard with any new pet addition.

Think before surrendering youpet.

Unfortunately we are in theprocess of assisting several petsbeing surrendered that are in theirhomes ready for adoption.

Surrenders: An evergrowing Problem

The American Red Cross hasrecently launched its officialHurricane App, putting lifesav-ing information right in thehands of people who live in orwho visit hurricane prone areas.

This free app is the second in aseries to be created by the Amer-ican Red Cross, the nation’sleader in emergency prepared-ness, for use on both iPhone andAndroid platforms. It gives in-stant access to local and realtime information on what to dobefore, during and after hurri-canes. Building on the RedCross’ leadership in the socialmedia space, the app also in-cludes a number of features thatallow people to monitor person-

alized weather alerts in locationswhere family and friends resideand share information with oth-ers in their social networks whomight also need it.

“We want everyone to be to beready for hurricanes,” said East-ern MA Red Cross CEO JarrettBarrios. “The Red Cross Hurri-cane App allows people to re-ceive and spread emergencyinformation and to share theirown status with friends andloved ones through social net-works, anywhere, anytime.”

The launch of the Red Crosshurricane app comes just beforewhat is traditionally the busiestperiod of the Atlantic hurricane

season. Features of the app in-clude:

• One touch “I’m safe” mes-saging that allows users tobroadcast reassurance to familyand friends via social media out-lets that they are out of harm’sway;

• Location-based NOAAweather alerts for the UnitedStates and its territories userscan share on social networks;

• Remote monitoring of per-sonalized weather alerts wherefamily and friends reside

• Locations of open Red Crossshelters;

• Simple steps and checklists

people can use to create a familyemergency plan;

• Preloaded content that givesusers instant access to criticalaction steps, even without mo-bile connectivity;

• Toolkit with flashlight, strobelight and audible alarm; and

• Badges users can earnthrough interactive quizzes andshare on social networks.

The app enables people acrossthe country to receive alerts forlocations in areas where theylike to vacation or where lovedones live, giving peace of mindto travelers, people who winterin warmer climates, and thosewith elderly relatives or collegestudents in coastal areas.

National Red Cross experts inhealth, safety, and preparedness

have thoroughly reviewed andfield tested the information andadvice provided in this app. TheHurricane App follows the re-cently released Red Cross FirstAid App which has had nearly600,000 downloads in just sixweeks. Testimonials and positivereviews have shown how dozensof people already have used theapp to help in real-life situations.

The Hurricane and First AidApps can be found in the AppleApp Store and the Google PlayStore for Android by searchingfor American Red Cross. Down-loading the First Aid app is not asubstitute for training. First Aidand CPR/AED training empow-ers people to know how to re-spond to emergencies in caseadvanced medical help is de-layed. People can visit red-cross.org/takeaclass for courseinformation and to register.

BY CHRISTINE JOHNSTON, OWNER,KOKO FITCLUB OF MANSFIELD,PLAINVILLE & WALPOLE

It’s back to school time! Teacher assignments arrived inthe mail this week in Mansfield,and parents and students alikewere anxious to learn who theywould have for a teacher this year.As parents, we recognize that ourchild’s teacher will significantlyinfluence his/her life for the nexteight months - not only academi-cally, but socially and emotionally.The best teachers will have an im-pact that lasts beyond this one year.We all have our own ideas aboutwhat makes a great teacher, but ingeneral, most of us probably agreethat we would like a teacher whomodels good behavior, inspireseach child to learn, and encourageseach child to be the best they canbe.

Consider this... Have youturned that same lens withwhich you assess yourchild’s teacher assign-ment on yourself? Asa parent or guardian,you are your child’smost important teacher,and that assignment does not lastjust one school year but a lifetime.Additionally, teaching your childdoes not end with bedtime stories,brushing teeth, and eating fruitsand vegetables, but extends to thebehaviors and attitudes we eachchoose to express every day. Now,more than ever, teaching childrento be active and make fitness a pri-ority in their lives will be critical totheir long term health and success.Every day, there is new evidencethat staying active and healthyfrom a young age is the key toavoiding many debilitating ill-nesses such as diabetes and heart

dis-ease. As parents, we have an op-portunity to become healthy and fitourselves and show our childrenthat staying fit is as important asbrushing our teach, getting a goodnight’s sleep, and trying hard inschool every day.

Prior to joining and owning KokoFitClub, I would not have calledmyself a “couch potato.” In fact,being a busy working mom ofthree children, I had convincedmyself that I MUST be activeenough through every day life tobe setting the proper example for

my children. Clearly, not true.The reality is that my children sawa mother who worked hard andtook them to all of their activities,but who was often tired at the endof the day. We were not engagedin fitness as a family, and I nevertook time to go to the gym or aclass to improve myself. I fell intothe classic mom trap - spending

time on fitness was spend-ing time on me, and Ineeded to devote mytime, energy, andmoney to my chil-dren.

Then, in September of2010, everything changed. I

joined Koko FitClub and realizedquickly that a commitment to fit-ness is anything but selfish. Mychildren quickly adapted to memaking Koko FitClub a priority inmy life. After all, with Koko’sSmartraining system, focused onmaximum results in minimal time,I was only spending one hour perday, approximately 3-4 days perweek, at Koko FitClub. The rest ofmy “free time” is still spent withthem, and the quality of our activ-ities has increased dramatically.Family hikes and family bike ridesoften fill our spare time and have

become some of our favorite fam-ily activities. Without question theinvestment in fitness that startedout as “something for me” quicklybecame something that has paidoff for our entire family.

On Mother’s Day 2011, I real-ized just how important the lessonfrom my new fitness priority was.My daughter wrote a poem for meat school. The assignment was towrite a poem about your momwith words you would use to de-scribe her. The words “exercise”and “fitness” appeared in thatpoem, and I knew they would nothave been there just one year be-fore. I was so thankful to be set-ting the proper example for mychildren. I was finally the personthat I would select as my chil-dren’s lifetime teacher.

For hundreds of thousands ofchildren across Massachusetts, theend of summer marks the begin-ning of another school year. Thisoften means a trip to the pediatri-cian or family doctor for a physicalexam. Sadly, however, one part ofthe body that is still being over-looked is right under our noses—the mouth, which, upon closerexamination, reveals that the stateof oral health among thousands ofMassachusetts children is notmaking the grade.

According to the Massachusetts

Dental Society (MDS), dentaldecay is the single most prevalentchildhood disease. Approximately51 million school hours are losteach year due to dental-relatedproblems.

Just like that physical exam be-fore school starts, taking the pre-ventive measure of a dental exammay help prevent your child frommissing valuable school days laterin the year.

A dentist will be able to examineyour child's teeth and mouth forsigns of decay or other issues and

make sure everything in the mouthis developing properly.

You also want to ensure yourchild's teeth are healthy and cav-ity-free because, in addition to theoral health implications, childrencan't concentrate and learn inschool when they have atoothache.

Preventing dental disease in chil-dren also involves adopting goodoral hygiene habits, limiting theirintake of sugary drinks and snacks,and having dental sealants appliedwhen appropriate. Parents can helpchildren maintain a healthy smileall year long by making sure theyfloss their teeth and brush well atleast twice a day with fluoridatedtoothpaste. Avoid packing theirschool lunch bags with snackitems such as candy, sugared gum,sticky granola bars, and evenraisins, which can cling to the teethand lead to decay. You may alsowant to consider dental sealants,which are thin plastic coatingsbrushed on to the tooth surfaces toprevent cavities.

And if your community's watersupply is not fluoridated or if youhave private well water, check withyour dentist about the possibilityof fluoride supplements for yourchild.

The MDS encourages parents toinclude dental office visits as partof their child's back- to-school rou-tine. That way, when it comes timefor the class photo to be taken laterthis fall, your child will really havesomething to smile about . . . andso will you.

Norwood Hospital Invites You to“Walk Away from Knee Pain”


CONTRIBUTED BY JOHNVACOVEC,OWNER AND THERAPIST OF

PHYSICAL THERAPY AND SPORTSREHAB, INC.

When there is a direct impact tothe knee (as commonly seen insports injuries), the knee joint cantwist or stretch beyond its normalcapacity causing ligament tears (orsprains), muscle tears (or strains),or cartilage injuries. Inflammationof protective cushioning in theknee joint (meniscus), or fluid-filled sacs inside the knee joint(bursitis), can also occur as a resultof excessive wear and tear in theknee.

Knee injuries may be associatedwith joint swelling. This makessimple activities like bending theknee or putting weight on the legdifficult and painful. Sometimes,there is very little swelling and lo-calized pain on one side of theknee, and the individual is able towalk without pain.

Physical therapy can help reducepain, regain function and restorestrength in the knee. If you suffer

from kneepain, you maybenefit fromattending twoto three phys-ical therapysessions aweek over thecourse of sev-

eral weeks, depending on theseverity of the injury.

A physical therapist is a trainedhealth care professional who candesign an effective injury preven-tion program, in addition to a com-prehensive rehabilitation programfor the knee. The goal of physicaltherapy is to restore mobility toyour knee as quickly as possible.

A Safe and Effective Treatment Plan

A physical therapist is a coach,mentor, and caregiver for the pa-tient. The goal of the therapist is tohelp you recover from pain and get

you back to normal mobilityas quickly as possible. One ofthe treatment objectives isstrategic strengthening of themuscles around the knee tomake the joint more stable,while protecting sensitive tis-sues during the healingprocess.

Depending on the results ofyour evaluation, the physicaltherapist may use heat to warm upthe area, and ice to cool downmuscles and reduce swelling. Ul-trasound may also be used to helprehabilitate the knee. This treat-ment uses high frequency soundwaves to stimulate deep tissues inthe body, facilitate healing and im-prove blood flow to the tissues.

The therapist may also use elec-trical stimulation, if appropriate.This modality sends an electricalcurrent the affected area to stimu-late muscle contraction.

We'll Stand Beside You A physical therapist is trained to

recognize biomechanical deficien-

cies in the body. This allows thetherapist to design a program tohelp you move and use musclesmore efficiently. A physical thera-pist can identify areas of weaknessand poor mobility around the kneejoint and design an exercise pro-gram to restore muscle balance be-tween the quadriceps (muscles thatextend the knee) and hamstrings(muscles that flex the knee).

At the initial visit, a therapist willask to see your medical history. It'simportant to discuss prior injuries,since this will help the therapistplan your treatment and intensityof exercises. It's also important todiscuss your tolerance for pain andyour future goals.

As the community's preferredphysical therapists, we'll stand byyou and help you recover quickly- just reach out to us. We'll guideyou every step of the way if you'veever had, or are at risk for, a kneeinjury.

There's no reason to livewith knee pain; we are trainedto help you get back on yourfeet, regain mobility, and re-turn to your daily activities asquickly as possible. Goahead, call us today. We arestanding by to serve you. .Physical Therapy and SportsRehab. Inc has 2 convenientlocations. Call our Norwood

Before starting his job as theNorwood Police Chief WilliamBrooks III promised to, wear a uni-form, walk the beat, and “disrupt”the drug system. He has kept thosepromises and is picking up thepace. To date, the Norwood PoliceDepartment has participated inthree drug raids – two of whichChief Brooks personally partici-pated. Smiling, he said his officerswere “too quick” for him to partic-ipate in the third.

In fact, in the midst of conductingthe interview for this article, one ofthe lieutenants called. Plainclothesofficer, David Eysie, witnessed aresident of 15 Sturtevant Ave,Henry Samuels, do a hand-to-handdrug transaction with twoteenagers. The officer stopped thetwo teenagers and recovered threebags of marijuana the teenagershad purchased.

According to Brooks, “In theend, we drove to Sturtevant and ar-rested him. He has a previous con-viction for a drug sale, so he facescharges as a second offender.While in our cell, he damaged thesprinkler system causing someflooding on the first floor. So thatcharge of malicious destruction of

property was added. He is beingheld on $1,000 cash bail.”

In this continuing quest to “sup-press drug distribution and abuse,”Chief Brooks recently presentedselectmen with his strategy oncombating the abuse of heroin andprescription painkillers, specifi-cally opioids such as Percocet®,Roxicet®, Endocet®, and hy-drocodone (i.e. Vicodin). The de-partment uses a crime-controlstrategy based on the principles ofthe New York City Police Depart-ment’s Compstat approach. Itconsists of 1) accurate timely intel-ligence, 2) rapid deployment of re-sources, 3) use of effective tactics,and 4) relentless follow-up and as-sessment. They also work with theNorfolk County Police Anti-CrimeTask Force (NORPAC), whichserves 15 Norfolk county commu-nities including Norwood.

The department pursues drugdealers, works with landlords, andprovides intervention assistance tousers. Officers are in uniform andin plainclothes. They walk thestreets, talk to residents, gather in-telligence, and respond promptlyas indicated by the incident that de-veloped while conducting the in-

terview for this article.

Chief Brooks says landlords’property is “subject to forfeiture ifthey knowingly allow (drug deals)to take place and make no effort toprevent it.” The department noti-fies property owners in writingwhen a tenant is caught sellingdrugs from a rented unit. In addi-tion, the department provides doc-uments and a list of additionalresources to evict tenants who dealdrugs and instructions for begin-ning eviction proceedings.

Chief Brooks does not just be-lieve in arresting and moving thedrug sellers out of town; he wantsto stop the problem itself. He tellsa story of resident who asked anofficer for help for an addictedfamily member; the officer waseager but didn’t know how to re-spond. The department is nowequipped to help addicts or theirfamilies find a treatment facility.Asked about the backlog of addictsseeking assistance and the limitedresources, Chief Brooks said, “it’sa matter of timing.” In particular,he recommends making phonecalls prior to court opening.

Since some of these drugs aretaken intravenously, and because a

prescription is no longer requiredto purchase syringes (and at leastone local chain is selling them in-dividually), the chief says, “Sy-ringes have become the beer can ofthe 70’s.” Users don’t want to becaught with them; they’re easy tobuy, so people just throw them outcar windows.

He also mentions MGL Section35, which lets police petition thecourt for commitment, if “he hasreason to believe (the person) is analcoholic or a substance abuser.”This is particularly helpful sincefamily members are afraid of dam-aging their relationship with theabuser.

A confidential Report a Tip line(781-440-5181) is available to re-port drug tips or emails may besent [email protected], residents are encouragedto call 911 to report drug activitycurrently in progress.

After being told a story aboutwatching a cocaine “buy” in an-other Norfolk County town inwhich three phone calls to detec-tives were ignored (even though alicense plate, vehicle and seller de-scription were made available),

Chief Brooks made assurancesthat phone calls will not be ignoredon his watch. He says, “All thisworks because everyone at theNorwood Police Department is onthe same page and works hard tomake Norwood a better place.”

Over the past few summers Sky-hawks Sports Academy, the leader inyouth sports programs since 1979,has been building a relationship withthe Norwood Recreation Depart-ment. While their main focus hasbeen to run summer camps with pro-grams that are popular with the kidsin town, this upcoming fall the Sky-hawks Sports Academy will be intro-ducing a six-week flag footballcurriculum to Norwood residents.

“We had introduced flag footballinto our mix earlier this summer inNorwood and it was somewhat suc-cessful with 17 participants,” Sky-

hawks Massachusetts Area ManagerKatie Holbrook said. “With its suc-cess Linda Berger (Program Direc-tor) of the Norwood RecreationDepartment gave us the go ahead toexpand the program this fall.”

Skyhawks Flag Football is the per-fect program for young athletes whowant a complete introduction to“America’s Game” or for those whosimply want to brush up on theirskills in preparation for league play.Skyhawk coaches are experiencedhigh school and/or college footballplayers who know the sport and canprovide the participants the skill sets

needed to not only play but un-derstand the game of football.

The program will begin onSaturday September 15 goingfrom 9 – 10:30 am and run forsix weeks, concluding on Oc-

tober 20 with the Columbus Dayweekend off. The flag football pro-gram is opened to those ages 7 -12.

“This is a coed program, but wedon’t usually anticipate too manygirls, but you never know,” Holbrooksaid. “Since it takes place at about thesame time Pop Warner Football isgoing on we usually get those kidswho can’t afford to play Pop Warnerand those who want to learn moreabout the sport.”

The first week will be dedicated toinstruction, rules of play, and skill as-

sessment to ensure fairly matchedteams are formed. During the nextfour weeks players will get 30 min-utes of instruction in a team settingfrom their individual team coach fol-lowed by two 30 minute scrimmageswith other teams in the league eachSaturday morning.

Throughout the skill instructionplayers will learn skills on both sidesof the ball including the core compo-nents of passing, catching, de-flag-ging, defensive positioning inaddition to much more while pre-sented in a fun and positive environ-ment. The final week will beallocated for playoff games whereeach team will get to play at least onegame and a league champion will becrowned. All participants will receivea Skyhawks t-shirt and merit award

at the completion of the program.

The cost of the program is $95 andalthough games will be played lo-cally in Norwood, area towns are en-couraged to sign up and join in thefun. Online registration is takingplace now and will be open until twoweeks prior to the season beginning.Holbrook is hoping for at least 24sign-ups so that they can put togethera league of at least four teams with 6players on each squad.

To join go towww.norwoodma.gov and click onthe photo of the Norwood Town Halland then select #14 recreation depart-ment.

Norwood Representative John H.Rogers secured $5.6 million infunding toward the design and con-struction of a Department of Con-servation and Recreation ice arenain South Norwood during a recentHouse session. Rogers has beenworking with Norwood YouthHockey, rink enthusiasts, and localofficials in search for funding for aNorwood-base rink for the town.

Rogers amended a state budgetthat closes out the books forFY2012 with language that author-izes and directs the state to expendup to $5,659,000 on a DCR rink inNorwood.

“This is great news for Norwoodfamilies as well as the Common-wealth,” Rogers said. “The statewill have an asset that it doesn’thave to maintain or manage; thetown can manage the asset and col-lect the revenues it generates; theneighborhood will benefit from aneconomic surge; and our youth, sen-iors, and all of Norwood’s familieswill at long last have access to ahome rink,” said Rogers.

Back in June, Rogers organized ameeting in South Norwood at the

Coakley Middle School with Nor-wood town officials, DCR engineersand youth group organizers to beginthe discussion of the possibility ofconstructing a DCR ice rink in Nor-wood. A senior DCR engineer atthe time surveyed the site, calling itan ideal place due to its access to ex-isting water, sewer, electricity andparking spaces which reduces con-struction costs overall.

The Rogers amendment amendeda 2008 environmental bond author-ization that allows for the construc-tion of publicly owned rinks. Earlierin July, met with DCR Commis-sioner Ed Lambert, Energy and En-vironmental Affairs Secretary RickSullivan, and Deputy Secretary ofAdministration and Finance ScottJordan to discuss a Norwood DCRrink. Rogers obtained agreementfrom these officials that the Nor-wood rink proposal is consistentwith Governor Deval Patrick’s five-year capital investment plan.

The Norwood rink language nowheads to the Senate where Nor-wood’s Senator Mike Rush (D-WestRoxbury), who supports the rinkplan, is expected to get the backingof the full Senate.

September Staples

Ah, September, the only monthof the year you can find a pen inthe Fitzgerald house without hav-ing to spend ten minutes tearingopen drawers or rummagingthrough pocket books- potentiallyletting a bad word or two slip out.

In September we have aplethora of pens in various colorsand points. Some come in boxes,others wrapped in plastic -allawaiting the first day of school.By the end of the month (who amI kidding, by the end of the firstweek) the pens will be gone- outof ink, lost, lent out, chewed up.

Let the back to school shoppinggames begin!

With three kids and one crazedadult all heading back to schoolthis month, the cost of suppliesseem to be adding up to a smallcar payment.

Let’s start with the backpackissue. According to the small, un-employable, financially depend-ent people that live in my house(and eat all my food) last year’sback pack is so last year.

When I was a kid, I had thesame book bag for five years.When I first got it, it read in boldyellow letters- St. Mary’s School.When I finally threw it away -only because I was changingschools- it read “May’s cool”.Sure it had gaping holes. Ofcourse, the pencils fell out of theholes along with pens and milkmoney. It said “cool” on it, and

apparently that was cool enough.

But times, like book bags havechanged. And unfortunately forme, I know the back pack gametoo well. But this year, I vow-nomatter how many times I amasked to buy princesses, fairies, orfrogs, I’m buying plain old plaidor just plain old plain. Period.

Hopefully, plain and boringwith get me through two schoolyears. But I doubt it.

This year I too am getting a newbackpack. Not because my oldone wasn’t fancy enough or coolenough but because I killed it.Lugging around thirty fivepounds of books (yes, I actuallyweighted them) proved too muchto bear for last year’s bag. So itbroke. The wheels just snappedright off, it sagged and basicallyimploded.

I haven’t decided what kind ofwheeled back to school bag I’llbe getting but it too will be plain-or possibly plaid.

I can already hear the beeping ofthe credit card machine as I swipeaway.

For school this year, my sonneeds a thesaurus. Why can heuse the one that MS Word pro-vides- for free? Eventually thisyear’s thesaurus -like last year’sdictionary- will end up in thesame spot, gathering dust underthe boy’s bed.

Let’s not forget the multitude offolders, and binders that need tobe bought. I know it’s supposed

to keep the kiddies organized. Butin reality too many binders canequal mass confusion.

Here’s a back to school mathquestion.

If I am to purchase a total of tenbinders for my two older childrenattending two different schools oneither side of town -what is theprobability that by the end of thethird week of school at least fourof the purchased binders are sit-ting forgotten on my kitchencounter and not in the correctclassroom? Or even the rightschool?

Number two pencil ready,begin.

I’ve already figured out the an-swer. I did the math in my head,without scrap paper or pen. If mycalculations are correct the an-swer is one hundred and ten per-cent.

But math has never been mystrong suit. I’m hoping my calcu-lations are incorrect.

I’m taking into considerationthat this is a new school year andmy kids and I are all a bit older(and gosh I hope wiser) and thatthe right binders go with the cor-rect kids to the right school intothe correct classroom -at leastuntil the end of September.
