"For the first time since 2014, the school department is allowing students to travel abroad.
The School Committee granted permission Tuesday for Franklin High School to pursue its planning for a trip to Europe.
High School history teacher Michael Walsh said the trip will be 10 heavy-hitting days, visiting places such as Berlin, Prague, Krakow and Budapest, and making stops at historic locations like Auschwitz.
“The School Committee seemed as if it was just hitting pause on travel,” Walsh said. “The China trip (in 2014) went off without a hitch, and I think, for us, we haven’t been pushing travel recently.”Continue reading the article online (subscription may be required)

"U.S. Senate candidate Shiva Ayyadurai is neither a Democrat nor a Republican. And that’s what teacher Michael Walsh had in mind when he invited him to speak to his AP government politics students.
Ayyadurai, an Indian-born scientist and entrepreneur who is running as an independent against incumbent Democrat Elizabeth Warren and Republican Geoff Diehl, made a stop at Franklin High School on Tuesday afternoon, speaking to two Advanced Placement senior classes about his stance on today’s politics and how young voters should approach the next election.
“You guys, I would argue, are the tip of the spear in the independents’ movement,” said Ayyadurai, 54. “I want everyone here to get out there and vote, if you can, and we’re here to teach you more.”
Walsh said the importance of bringing an independent candidate on campus to express his views is paramount to his coursework, and to understanding more than just the Republican and Democratic perspectives in the political world."

"Nora Watts wakes up at 4:50 a.m. on days she’s working.
The 66-year-old gets up, dresses and goes to the gym because she wants to ensure she’s in-shape enough to perform her duties as a nurse at Newton-Wellesley Hospital.
“I’m not a spring chicken anymore,” Watt said. “I want to make sure I stay strong and healthy.”
The job has become more difficult and more dangerous in recent years, Watts said, in part because nurses – like herself – are being asked to care for more patients at a time than Watts believes is responsible."

an independent review of the Article 1 question and issues covering both sides |
"The first gubernatorial debate between Gov. Charlie Baker and Democratic challenger Jay Gonzalez will take place in two weeks on the night of Oct. 9, with WBZ-TV host Jon Keller as moderator, according to campaign officials familiar with debate negotiations between the two candidates.
The televised debate at 8 p.m. will be one of three debates this cycle, and represents a potential turning point for Gonzalez, who continues to trail Baker in the polls and fundraising while also suffering from low name recognition.
Days after the primary, Baker’s campaign announced that he had agreed to three televised debates against his general election opponent. Gonzalez had been pushing for more debates, and Baker received some criticism for turning down invitations to debate in western Massachusetts."

Thank you to all the golfers that came out & supported the FHS baseball program during our inaugural golf fundraiser yesterday. It was an amazing day & a lot of fun. Thank you to the players, parents, alumni & boosters for putting together such a special event! #PantherPride pic.twitter.com/5oWFM67Jxh— FHS Baseball (@FHSCoachZBrown) September 24, 2018
