“The Schools Are Killing Our Kids!” the African American Fight for Self- Determination in the Boston Public Schools, 1949-1985
ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: “THE SCHOOLS ARE KILLING OUR KIDS!” THE AFRICAN AMERICAN FIGHT FOR SELF- DETERMINATION IN THE BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS, 1949-1985 Lauren Tess Bundy, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Dissertation directed by: Associate Professor David Freund, Department of History This dissertation examines a grassroots movement led by black Bostonians to achieve racial justice, quality education, and community empowerment in the Boston Public Schools during the postwar period. From the late 1940s through the early 1980s black parents, teachers, and students employed a wide-range of strategies in pursuit of these goals including staging school boycotts, creating freedom schools, establishing independent alternative schools, lobbying for legislation, forming parent and youth groups, and organizing hundreds of grassroots organizations. At the heart of this movement was a desire to improve the quality of education afforded to black youth and to expand the power of black Bostonians in educational governance. This dissertation demonstrates that desegregation and community control were not mutually exclusive goals or strategies of black educational activism. I examine the evolution of the goals, ideology, and strategy of this movement over the course of more than three decades in response to shifts in the national and local political climate. This work traces the close ties between this local movement in Boston and broader movements for racial and social justice unfolding across the nation in the 1940s, 50s, 60s, and 70s. Most importantly, my dissertation puts this movement in conversation with a broader national project of various marginalized groups in the postwar period to radically transform the institutions of democracy. This dissertation challenges a well-known narrative of civil rights and school desegregation in Boston in this period. -

Since both sets of people are foreign they tend to get lumped together. Its degrading to the legitimate immigrant wanting to be an American. There is criteria that one must follow to become a naturalized citizen of the United States. Adhering to these guidelines almost ensures that the immigrant will become a productive member of society. People entering the country illegally has reeked havoc on many aspects of our lives and causes the problems which over shadow the benefits of lawful immigration. The general requirements for administrative naturalization include: a period of continuous residence and physical presence in the United States; an ability to read, write, and speak English; a knowledge and understanding of U.S. history and government; good moral character; attachment to the principles of the U.S. Constitution; and favorable disposition toward the United States. These are high standards, indeed. Impossible in some eyes. In reality there are provisions and exceptions that make the transition more easily attainable.

MIDDLESEX COUNTY Your local Civil Defense Director and other local public officials, under the guidance of State and Federal Civil Defense Agencies, have been working for some time to develop the best plan for survival in the event of Nuclear Attack using presently available resources. The basements of many homes in this area, because of the substantial type of construction, will provide a degree of protection against radioactive fallout, with those persons not able to take shelter at home being provided space in public shelter. - The Community Shelter Plan is Option I of the Nuclear Civil Protec tion Program for Massachusetts and would be implemented if insufficient time was available for evacuating people from areas that would be subject to direct blast damage.

Boston High School Graduates' Assessments of Their High Schools
Boston High School Graduates' Assessments of Their High Schools' Role in Preparing Them for College and the Labor Market: Individual Comments from the Followup Survey of Class of 2003 Graduates Prepared by Jacqui Motroni Joseph McLaughlin Andrew Sum Center for Labor Market Studies Northeastern University Boston, MA Prepared for: Boston Private Industry Council Boston, MA March 2005 Introduction Each year since the mid-l 980s, the Boston Private Industry Council has conducted a follow-up survey of graduates from the city's public high schools. The survey of graduates from the Class of 2003 was carried out in the late winter and early spring of 2004. The follow-up survey is primarily designed to track the experiences of individual high school graduates in transitioning to college and the labor market during the first nine to ten months following graduation from high school. Since 1998, the fo llow-up questionnaire has included an open-ended question requesting respondents (including the parents of graduates) to provide an assessment of their high schools' effectiveness in preparing them for college and/or the job market. The responses to this question are coded by researchers within CLMS 1 and used to prepare a statistical analysis of the findings • A fom1al research paper summarizing and assessing the findings of an analysis of their comments also has been prepared by the authors. In this repo11, we present the specific comments provided by each individual graduate who responded to this question. Findings are displayed by high school in alphabetical order. This repo11 together with the research paper presenting the statistical analysis should be helpful to principals, counselors, career specialists, and teachers in identifying graduates' appraisals of the contributions and limitations of their high school programs. -
Wednesday, March 18, 2020 Dear School Committee Members, Thank You for Taking the Time to Read Our Letter
Wednesday, March 18, 2020 Dear School Committee Members, Thank you for taking the time to read our letter. During this chaotic time, we are seeing the inequities within our community boldly highlighted. The resource gaps are increasingly clear as families decide between childcare and a paycheck, between reducing health risk and paying rent. As this situation will almost surely become more dire for many families within our school communities, we ask you to look with a more scrutinizing eye on the budget proposal you have laid out for the P.A. Shaw for SY20-21. We at the P.A. Shaw school community, including educators, families, and students, are facing our second year of significant budget cuts. These budget cuts are clearly reflective of the declining enrollment of our school that began in SY17-18. In the spring of 2018, BPS announced that, contrary to what was previously told to families, the P.A. Shaw would end at Grade 3. This meant that all of the families who had students in the third grade had to rush to find a school placement for their child or to accept their 4th grade seat at the Mildred Avenue School. This not only disempowered families but it was the catalyst for near twenty percent decline in enrollment in only two years as evidenced below: SY 18-19 SY 19-20 SY 20-21 # of Students: 204 # of Students: 174 # of Students (projected): 168 Educators at the P.A. Shaw hear stories constantly from families who feel forced to leave our school. Families who have a child in the third grade and a child in kindergarten feel forced to move both children to a different school in order to avoid juggling two school locations, two drop offs, and two pick up times.
