Fights break out at Somerville High School roughly once every two weeks, School Committee members heard, but a look at the Capuano Early Childhood Education Center showed a more delightful side of education.
The Winter Hill Community and Innovation School at Sycamore Street will not be reoccupied, Somerville’s superintendent said. The district’s violence in Gaza was another major component of the recent School Committee meeting.
All year-two educators in Somerville’s school district will get training around anti-bias and antiracist teaching, said Caeli Gallitano, director of equity and excellence.
Students won’t be returning to the Winter Hill Community Innovation School in Somerville anytime soon, and district officials are working on crisis communication after as many as five fights broke out at the high school, School Committee members heard.
Fixing the Winter Hill school is high-priority for Somerville despite its lack of a plan if the state doesn’t offer funding, officials said. State funding, though, also comes with a multiyear process of up to seven years.
