Roxanne Musto (Select Board candidate) was unable to join and submitted the following statement in her absence:

Below is a statement that I have provided in advance of the SEPAC forum, as I am unable to attend due to a Select Board appointed committee forum that I have to attend. I want to share a bit about my experience and background, and touch on what I would have spoken about during tonight’s forum.

I am a lifelong Milton resident who has worked as a nurse and nurse practitioner for many years, and I currently work as a nurse practitioner caring for our elderly population.

In terms of service to the town, I serve as the Vice-Chair of the Select Board, a member of the Board of Health, and a long-time Town Meeting Member from Precinct 5. I have also served on numerous committees and organizations over the years, including the Warrant Committee. As a working mother of two children who also attended and graduated from the Milton Public Schools, I have been very involved in educational organizations in Milton as well.

All children deserve the opportunity to thrive. It is vital that we protect services for all students in the Milton Public Schools, especially those with special needs. Children in our schools who benefit from special education should have all of those tools necessary to help them to develop into their full potential. I’m grateful for the parents involved in SEPAC who advocate for those students. The collaboration and systems put in place for these students between parents and the school system is essential to these students’ success.

Thank you to all our Candidates and we remind all residents to please VOTE on Tuesday, April 29!
