"Local residents were invited Monday evening to meet the candidates vying to be the next leader of the school district.
More than 20 members of the public came to ask questions of the three finalists for the superintendent position: Blackstone-Millville Assistant Superintendent David Thomson, Chelmsford Assistant Superintendent Linda Hirsch and Weymouth Assistant Superintendent Susan Kustka.
The candidates were each asked about moving high school start times in light of data showing that teens perform better with a later start.
Hirsch stressed the importance of researching the change, suggesting a committee of stakeholders examine the issue."

Friday, Feb 3, 2017 - 6:00 PM - Autoimmunity Event
If you've been struggling with all sorts of "things" and just want to feel better, then come to the Adirondack Club this Friday, Feb. 3rd @ 6:00 for this event on Autoimmunity.
Yes, it's one of those words. It's kind of vague and there are so many factors. But… it is the root of most ailments…. allergies, IBS, achy joints, headaches, acne, flushed cheeks, rashes, infertility, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, digestive issues, stomach acid etc.
If you, a family member or a friend are trying to work these ailments, come to listen and begin to understand how good a body should feel! Lisa Vasile, NP and others will be speaking at this event.
Empower Yourself to reduce and reverse your Autoimmune condition and symptoms!
Learn the 5 key components identified to distract, overwhelm and aggravate the immune system.
When these are removed autoimmunity calms down drastically.
Autoimmunity is a condition of the identifying itself as an enemy and then attacking itself. Traditional medicine offers medications to prolong life or reduce symptoms but doesn't work with patients to remove the root causes for the body turning on itself.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3RD 6-7:30PM - ADIRONDACK CLUB CHESTNUT ST, FRANKLIN
Tickets for this event are $10.00 either at the door or by contacting hosts
Leah Khouri 774-571-9314

Conflict of interest of public official; reporting requirement
"Any public official, as defined by section l of chapter two hundred and sixty-eight B, (read a Town Councilor)
who in the discharge of his official duties (voting on a zoning bylaw amendment, for example)
would be required knowingly to take an action which would substantially affect such official's financial interests, (any bylaw amendment that would affect the market value of residential or commercial property)
unless the effect on such an official is no greater than the effect on the general public, (when the Town Councilor is also a realtor, they would have a 'greater' effect than the general citizen)
shall file a written description of the required action and the potential conflict of interest with the state ethics commission established by said chapter two hundred and sixty-eight B." (how many such filings have been made the realtors who are Town Councilors?)
Why do we ask such?
The potential councilor conflict of interest for realtors was raised during the Summer St zoning map change discussion. One realtor councilor had recused himself. The other realtor councilor chose not to recuse himself.Glenn Jones after being duly elected in 2013, resigned from the Town Council in October 2014 as he had just been hired to teach at Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School. As a member of the Town Council, he would be voting on the Franklin portion of the Tri-County budget. He was subsequently voted in again in 2015 and it was known that he was working at Tri-County so while the conflict potential exists, it was at least disclosed and known. He took the high road in 2014 and kudos to him for doing so.
From MA.gov:
268A:6A. Conflict of interest of public official; reporting requirement."Section 6A. Any public official, as defined by section l of chapter two hundred and sixty-eight B, who in the discharge of his official duties would be required knowingly to take an action which would substantially affect such official's financial interests, unless the effect on such an official is no greater than the effect on the general public, shall file a written description of the required action and the potential conflict of interest with the state ethics commission established by said chapter two hundred and sixty-eight B."Copied from the MA page found here

"As Gov. Charlie Baker vetoed a controversial pay-raise bill Friday, several local lawmakers - on both sides of the argument - defended their votes.
The $18 million package that would bump pay for legislative leaders, judges and constitutional officers swiftly passed through the House and Senate this week with near unilateral support of Democrats, and complete opposition by Republicans.
Baker called the pay hikes "irresponsible" and rejected the bill. Republicans from MetroWest and the Milford area agreed with Baker's veto."

FHS wrestling takes Hockomock Championship; boys hockey tops Oliver Ames
Hockey = Oliver Ames, 1 @ Franklin, 4 – Final
"Former Franklin goalie Sean Bertoni (Class of 2002) made his first return to his alma mater as a head coach on Saturday night, leading Oliver Ames into Pirelli Veterans Arena with a chance to take control of the Kelley-Rex title race.
But it was current Panthers netminder Cam Benham that stole the headlines and the two points with a 40-save performance that helped Franklin claim a 4-1 victory and control of its own destiny as it seeks to clinch a sixth straight league championship.
“That’s the goaltender that we need every night,” said Franklin coach Chris Spillane. “We’re looking forward to Cam getting on a roll. He had a shutout the other night, played unbelievable for us tonight, made some really big saves, and kept us in the game.”Continue reading the hockey game recap by Josh Perry online

Wrestling = Hockomock League Championships (@ Oliver Ames)
"Franklin had three individual champions, two second place finishes and four more grapplers finish third or fourth to win the team title at the Hockomock League Wrestling Championships at Oliver Ames on Saturday.
The Panthers registered 218.5 points, edging out North Attleboro (212.5 points) and Foxboro (200.5 points).
Franklin’s Ian Bakalars won the 113 title with a 6-2 decision, Mike Racca notched a first round pin to win the 120 title and Dylan Maclean earned the 145 title with a pin. Jordan Carlucci (106) and Brian Perry (285) had second place finishes, Evan Hernandez (182) and Kyler Colella (195) each came in third and TJ Remillard (126) and Brian Farrell (132) both placed fourth."
