About Save the Spartans
Hello -
I'm a former student and athlete at Stoneham High School (class of '89), and like a lot of you, I was shocked and saddened to hear the news of the budget cuts that will eliminate all high school sports, as well as art & music programs in the lower grades. Like a lot of former Stoneham residents, the first I heard of this, regretfully, was in June 23rd's Boston Globe.
Some of my favorite memories from Stoneham High include my times on the basketball and soccer teams. I had some great coaches (Jim Carino springs to mind) that were every bit as influential and inspiring as my favorite teachers. If I learned teamwork and the ability to compromise, I learned it on the field and court, where those lessons are essential and more easily learned than in the classroom.
My family also has a long history with SHS athletics: my uncles Mike & Tommy were accomplished hockey players, and my grandfather, Sarge O'Toole, was captain of the football, basketball and baseball teams. I have a slew of aunts and uncles and cousins and friends, like I'm sure a lot of you do, who played one sport or another over these past seven decades at Stoneham High School.
Surely no individual or business in Stoneham can afford to see these vital school programs wiped out.
I hope everyone will forward this website to friends and relatives who live in Stoneham, or care about the future of the town.
Save the Spartans!
