Like textbooks, building mainte- nance is not the most exciting concern making its way across Perry’s desk every day. But Perry and top school aides realize tracking school building up- keep is an opportunity for savings benefiting local taxpayers. Even with a state-of-the-art high school, Marble- head must stay ahead of the curve when it comes to maintaining nine local school buildings. The El- bridge Gerry School is the oldest town school and it has not seen a major renovation in 110 years. Town residents in their wisdom gave town officials permission to push ahead with an expensive and exhaustive review process that will conclude with important decisions about the Gerry’s future. School building renovation or new construction projects are expensive and school officials have made the right decision by minding maintenance dollars and cents. To her credit, Perry did not shy away from school spending problems in the school department sum- mary for the 2015 town report. She warned of rising costs and “increasing pressure” in describing school financial challenges. But she also offered specific solutions to balancing the school budget. “While we know we have budget pressures in our future, the traction, trust and collaboration we have gained this year sets a strong foundation for contin- ued good work,” she wrote by way of summarizing school spending challenges. It will be interesting to see how Perry sums up in the 2016 town report new challenges faced by town schools and efforts to overcome them.

B8 THE DAILY ITEM WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 2016 FOOD Food just one part of the fun

By Rosalie Harrington ITEM FOOD EDITOR “You probably never get invited to din- ner.” I hear this often from people who are usually eating at our house and have a wave of fear when they think about re- ciprocating. Of course, food is a good part of getting together, but just like in a restaurant the ambience and the chem- istry between you and the others is also important. When I think of some of the dinner par- ties we have attended this season, food is not paramount. I say this just in case you are feeling intimidated about having me over! The dinner party we attended last Fri- day is a perfect example of what makes a great evening. At a table of nine at a beautiful country club, to my right was the host and to my left was his 14-year- old daughter, Amanda. This was the first time that our host was seated next to me. I made a point to sit next to Amanda; she has a delightful, big personality stored in a lovely, petite frame. She remembered some of our con- versation from the last time we were to- gether and shared with me what she has been up to; she’s a ballerina and a baker, with friends galore. Her happily old-fash- ioned parents allowed no talking into, tex- ting or even glancing at her phone during dinner.
