"Why things don't seem to change."

Let's keep faith, folks. We are in this as a community; students, teachers, parents and citizens; and we will find equitable solutions without pointing fingers or scapegoating anyone.
As any sociologist, economist, and planner will tell you after looking at Newburyport and it's struggles, the list starts with a lack of affordable housing, continues through a failure to maintain infra-structure, to pro-actively plan, allowing politicians to run divisive campaigns, to tolerate mediocrity on the municipal level and in the schools. And that is just a start.
But we have to start. That's what matters.
Anything is possible.
As The Boss says, "Show a little faith, there's magic in the night..."
