MEDFORD, MA — Mea Quinn Mustone, a three-term School Committee member and mother of five students in the Medford Public Schools, announced her re-election campaign Friday. Mustone and her husband, Tim, are the parents of six children – Quinn, 18, Teagan, 16, Cullen, 15, Nevin, 13, Rowan, 12, and Declan, 9.

This fall, Mustone will have one child attending Medford High School, two attending the Andrews Middle School, and one attending the Roberts Elementary School.

"I humbly ask for your vote in my re-election bid," Mustone said. "My work for a more engaging school experience that serves the needs of Medford's kids is not yet done."

This term, I have helped guide our school district through the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the most challenging time I've seen as a school committee member. Our innovative testing program allowed us to bring students back, and we are ready to adjust and address needs this upcoming year to make sure students are getting the education they deserve. We also implemented new science and math curriculums, guaranteed a $15 minimum wage for after school employees, and advanced many updates to our district policies.

 

Next term, we face great challenges, including responsible decisions around the COVID-19 pandemic and investing more in our students and schools to recover and move forward. Our schools face major challenges and all of our departments need more investments to provide the programs and education that all of our kids deserve. I will also be working to implement a new English Language Arts (ELA) and social studies curriculum and focusing on the long-term plan for our school infrastructure, especially Medford High School.

My agenda going forward is defined by the many hours I have spent talking with parents at my kitchen table, the grocery store, school plays, and other places throughout the city. The list of areas in need of improvement is long. I have been able to seek out answers, updates, information, and improvements in some of these areas from Medford Public Schools leadership and staff. The answer wasn't always the one that we hoped for, but we have shined a light on parents' concerns and will continue the conversation.

I have used my tenure on the School Committee to be a voice for MPS parents. I ask now for your continued support. Please join me in investing in our schools and committing ourselves to a future where every child receives a caring, safe and challenging educational experience.
