At the in-person workshops, we will share in detail how the decision-making rubric works, including what it tells us about the impact of potential investments in BPS students. We’ll walk through scenarios together, applying a neighborhood lens, and discuss how the information the decision-making rubric provides could be used in future facilities planning and decision-making.

Sergeant Lane graduated from Brighton High School in June of 1962 with a Co-operative automobile mechanics diploma.

Sidney remained at that hospital for 12 days until he passed away due to his injuries on April 29, 1967, at age 25. He was awarded the Purple Heart and is buried in the Mount Hope Cemetery in Mattapan. Sidney D.
