Since it s February, and almost a year since nearly all of Somerville’s public school students have been in a classroom, we’re taking a look at how reopening plans have progressed – or not – in neighboring districts.
Over the summer, Somerville developed three plans to return to instruction as mandated by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education: a fully remote, hybrid, and in-person model. This school year, Somerville has been fully remote, only recently bringing a select few high-needs students back in to classrooms a few days a week.
Since funding was approved in November, Somerville has been engaged in lengthy construction processes to update the HVAC systems in eight of Somerville’s 11 schools. Construction has been continually delayed and, along with negotiations with the Somerville Educators Union, has pushed back in-person reopening dates.

In reviewing three candidates for the police reserve list, to fill current vacancies in the Somerville Police Department, a City Council committee voted against confirming the first name on the list.
On Feb. 2, all five councilors on the Confirmation of Appointments and Personnel Matters committee voted against appointing Matthew Fairchild to the police reserve list. The other two candidates, Giovanna Lorenzet Marin and Jose DaCosta, were approved in a 3-2 vote.
While police reserve list appointments have been a simple process in the past, the meeting played out like a slow motion drama.
The committee began by interviewing candidates in open session, before breaking for executive session to address protected personnel matters.
