Here's what I see all across this great city - people working together to make Boston a better place to live and to raise children, to grow and pursue dreams.

One of our key strategies has been to restructure traditional high schools into small learning communities with personalized attention and a range of options.

I am also committed to providing city employees with housing assistance.

It's like an Alcatraz around my neck

Diversity gives our city a competitive edge.

I'm driven. I have the opportunity to change people's lives.

I am working hard to ensure that working families can continue to afford to live in our city.
