A PARENT. A NEIGHBOR. YOUR SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEMBER.
I'm Mike Mastrobuoni. I bring a public school parent's perspective and a municipal finance director's experience to our School Committee.
ROOTED IN MEDFORD.I'm a Medford parent, a public servant, and a guy who knows that understanding the numbers is the foundation to a successful district.
My family calls Fulton Heights home, and my kids attend the Roberts School. In my work as Somerville's Budget Director, I help turn priorities into budgets and long-term plans. On the Medford School Committee, I use that experience to help understand what's going on in our schools: ask questions, explain the choices, and always keep students at the center.
Have a question? Let's talk →Strong schools take resources, trust, and a plan. Here's where I'm putting my attention.
Reliable funding for teachers, programs, and the support every student needs. Make the choices clear and connect each budget to what it means in the classroom. City Hall needs to be our partner, not our adversary.
Build a much-needed new Medfofd High School and a develop long-term financial plans that make sure we support our students. Understand what we're investing in, what it costs, and how we'll pay for it.
Support inclusive education, early learning, and vocational opportunities. Listen to families and make sure resources respond to students' needs.
Local government shouldn't require a universal translator device. Explore the tools I like to make, test my assumptions, and see the choices for yourself.
Why a growing budget can still mean less for our schools and services—and what Medford can do about it.
