Make the most of hearing on middle school pick

While pushing back last week's planned School Commitee vote on whether the Fulller School or O'Maley buildings will make the most sense for use as a middle school, Committee Chairman Greg Verga reminded his colleagues it will be still be their decision - regardless of which option draws the most support at this Wednesday's public hearing.

But we'd also like to issue a reminder to parents and residents: If you have some insight as to which would be the most effective middle school for Gloucester's future, the Wednesday hearing - set for 7 p.m. at City Hall - offers a chance for you to have your say.

Don't gripe after the fact about the school committee's difficult choice. Speak up when it counts - Wednesday night.
