Superintendent Michael Baldassarre ahead of a closed-door meeting between the recently arrested educator and the School Committee “Our kids are making TikToks and laughing about the head of our district,” resident Tina Ryan told School Committee members ahead of an executive session they held with Baldassarre Baldassarre, 51, was arraigned last week on multiple criminal charges including drunken driving after state police alleged he nearly caused a crash on Interstate 495 in Bolton after driving 100 mph Baldassarre, who pleaded not guilty, has not commented on his arrest and the School Committee placed him on paid administrative leave last week.  Baldassarre’s contract stipulates that the School Committee must give him 30 days of notice and the right to a hearing if it intends to fire him After meeting for about an hour in executive session Tuesday the committee read a statement in which Chairman Ben Casper acknowledged “the call for action from many community members” regarding Baldassarre in light of his charges “While I’m not at liberty to discuss this confidential personnel matter in detail at this time I want to ensure the community that the School Committee is committed to addressing the issues in a manner that best serves students and our community," he said Casper said Baldassarre would remain on leave as the School Committee continued to “work through the issue we ask the community for patience as the district complies with its legal obligations,” he said adding it would provide future updates as appropriate Casper confirmed after the meeting that Baldassarre will remain on paid leave some who brought signs opposing Baldassarre offered public comment urging the School Committee to part ways a frequent critic of Baldassarre who ran unsuccessfully for School Committee last year who held a sign with the same sentiment as she spoke said the town was hurting as a result of the superintendent’s arrest Finance Committee Vice Chairman Jim Hogan told the committee that Baldassarre’s arrest would make it even more difficult to secure a budget in the coming year Uxbridge made headlines last year when Town Meeting voted down the school budget an episode that caught officials off guard and sent the district and its teachers into panic some employees left for other districts and a Special Town Meeting was required in order to ensure the schools had funding for the year Hogan said he believes opposition to Baldassarre’s tenure was the reason why the budget originally failed He said while his interactions with Baldassarre have been fine many interactions” with others that were not “Your fight this year is going to be even worse if he is still here,” he said “That’s something you seriously have to consider in this process.”  Resident Pat Stephan also spoke against Baldassarre saying he had issued unheeded warnings about his character during the superintendent’s evaluation process lamenting how many times controversy around the district has filled pages in the newspaper Stephan said while he doesn’t have kids in the district he’s concerned as a taxpayer how the town is viewed from the outside “Let’s have a larger view and let’s do the right thing,” he said chairwoman of the Uxbridge Special Education Parent Advisory Committee said that superintendents should be a role model for students and staff “(This is) not good character and not someone we want representing Uxbridge and our kids and our district.”  had not allowed for public participation via Zoom which she said might have suppressed public comment Casper said that was an oversight on his part saying he had omitted public comment from the original agenda for Tuesday’s meeting and then added it after other members contacted him the head of schools in Uxbridge since July 2022 was given a three-year contract extension last January over the opposition of many residents His tenure has been controversial in Uxbridge including last year’s budget crisis during which he issued a press release with inaccurate information and clashed publicly with town officials All but one of the School Committee members who voted to extend Baldassarre’s contract last January either left or did not win reelection several months after the vote In mid-May, four new members were elected to the School Committee including Jessica Mandile Baldassarre was denied a restraining order against Stephen Mandile after an incident outside Uxbridge High School in which he alleged Mandile placed him in fear The district ended up settling a lawsuit Mandile

Mackenzie Reynolds drained a 3-pointer but when that total nearly matches the three previous combined quarters And when Carroll’s And-1, left-handed scoop shot turned into a three-point play the Hopedale student section finally had a chance to let out a “Seven Nation Army” chant But seconds after the Blue Raiders clipped a 14-point deficit down to two Uxbridge’s Ava Rosborough converted a three-point play of her own with two and a half minutes remaining to squelch the late rally The No. 3 seeded Spartans, who lost to Hopedale by 16 points nearly two months ago, held on to win their first Clark Tournament Small Division girls basketball championship with a 30-25 victory on Friday night but overcoming a five-point first half and a 23-9 deficit after three quarters proved too much “We burned a lot of energy scrounging to get back in it,” head coach Jason Rojee said “Five points in a half is just inexcusable but I don’t think we focused enough in the first half.”  The Raiders (16-5) topped the Spartans 49-33 on Dec 27 in the first round of the Millis Holiday Tournament Uxbridge began a more pressing style of defense which keyed a seven-game winning streak through late January that pressure forced a number of turnovers and missed shots “They beat us pretty soundly,” Uxbridge coach John Gniadek said of the first meeting “We made a change in our strategy and really focused on being a more pressing aggressive defensive team and it’s made a complete change in our season.”  After holding Hopedale to zero points in the second quarter the Spartans (16-5) nearly turned the game into a rout But Jenna Weeden’s 3-pointer and Carroll’s three-point play cut the team’s deficit to 25-23 before Uxbridge held on Uxbridge slowly built its first-half lead thanks to Bailey Dzivasen who scored nine first-half points and finished with a game-high 11 The Spartans have held six of their last seven opponents to under 31 points en route to winning the Clark title “It’s unbelievable; I still can’t believe it myself,” Gniadek “I told the girls midway through the season what a prestigious tournament this is and how important it is to the area I was like ‘why can’t we win it?’ I kept reiterating that message to the girls over and over so hopefully this gets a little momentum in basketball now.”  Hopedale had won 11 of its previous 12 games and will earn a top-two seed into the Division 5 state tournament when pairings are announced on Saturday Rojee said the team must use Friday’s game as a learning experience You can’t take your foot off the gas,” he said “You can’t go into a game with any expectation that you’ll win without maximum effort.”  Tim Dumas is a multimedia journalist for the Daily News He can be reached at tdumas@wickedlocal.com In agreeing to leave town following his arrest on drunken driving allegations former Uxbridge Public Schools Superintendent Michael Baldassarre will be paid three months’ salary A seven-page separation agreement obtained by the Telegram & Gazette through a public records request shows Baldassare who agreed to part ways with the town effective March 4 That compensation will total about $40,000 and Baldassarre will also receive about $15,800 for 21 days of unused vacation He was making $172,000 annually prior to his exit Other terms of severance include that the district will provide a neutral reference with only dates worked and the position held if the superintendent’s office is contacted by potential future employers Baldassarre agreed not to sue the town or any of its employees for anything related to his employment up to the date of the agreement The agreement at one point states that Baldassarre acknowledged making allegations through his attorney of violations of the State Ethics Law by School Committee members – allegations the document says are “disputed” and that the members deny It also states that Baldassarre has been informed that the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education has requested the town provide “information and documentation related to your employment with the District related to your professional licensure." “You acknowledge the District’s obligation to provide the requested information and documentation to DESE,” it states and authorize such release despite the fact that it “may otherwise constitute a confidential personnel record."  School Committee Chairman Benjamin Casper declined to comment on the severance agreement which includes a nondisparagement clause that covers both sides told the T&G on Tuesday that the state education department's request had “nothing to do with his performance as the superintendent of schools.”  Baldassarre was arrested on accusations of drunken driving in January after a state trooper alleged he had driven 100 mph and nearly caused a crash on Interstate 495 in Bolton at 2:40 a.m Burke defended his client’s professional accomplishments Wednesday has spent his career as a “remarkable advocate” for all children especially those with disabilities or dealing with emotional problems Burke said Baldassarre helped increase grant funding for Uxbridge and successfully settled four contracts since he stepped into the job in July 2022 Burke said test scores had also gone up under Baldassarre;

The westbound Ford veered left off of the roadway, while the Dodge veered right off the roadway,” police explained. “The result was both vehicles hitting head-on off of the roadway,” cops added. A woman who was a passenger in the Dodge “suffered serious life-altering injuries” and had to be extricated from the vehicle, police said, adding the senior citizen was rushed to a trauma centre in Toronto where she remains in stable condition. “The driver of the Ford and driver of the Dodge both were transported to a local hospital with minor injuries,” police said.

South Main Street They also say two people were sent to the hospital but they are facing non-life threatening injuries A number of businesses in this building were also forced to close on Thursday "We

they're not going to be able to get through which are bringing traffic around through north Uxbridge Former State Fire Marshal Peter Ostroskey was on scene Thursday getting drone footage He says there's a sizable hole on the roof.  The fire department says their big question now is the safety of this building and whether or not people will be able to go back in it Building inspectors and investigators were on scene on Thursday and they're hoping to have an answer to that question in the near future Frontier goalkeeper Kyra Richards blocks a shot against Uxbridge’s Addie Blood (4) in

state champions weren’t ready to relinquish their crown on Tuesday Fourth-seeded Frontier took on top-seeded Uxbridge in the Div 4 semifinals at Agawam High School and the Spartans quickly got to work gaining five corners in the opening 15 minutes and turning one into a goal Uxbridge struck twice in the final four minutes of the half and tacked on two goals in the second half of action advancing to the final for the fourth straight season with a 5-0 victory over the Redhawks in the semis on Tuesday — in the championship game at a date and time to be determined “The score does not indicate how hard our girls worked tonight,” Frontier coach Missy Mahar said “They had certain goals we were setting each quarter They held them scoreless in the third quarter with only one quarter so there were big takeaways from a game like this “I know it looks misleading with a 5-0 loss but I think they played their hearts out against a team that has won the last three state championships,” Mahar added They followed the gameplan and tried to create opportunities when they could.”  The loss closes out the season for the Redhawks (18-3-2) one in which they took home a share of the Suburban League title and lifted a Western Mass Class C championship to go along with the state semifinal appearance we reminded them that they were one of four teams in Division 4 still playing tonight,” Mahar said Hopefully that’s how they can remember this season I couldn’t have asked for anything more from them While its offense was able to generate goals it was the Uxbridge defense that made the difference on Tuesday The Spartans (20-2) dominated possession and consistently kept the ball away from their goal Frontier did not finish with a shot on goal with Redhawk goalie Kyra Richards was called in to make 12 saves The Spartans finished with a 12-0 corner advantage “We knew the tall order coming into this,” Mahar said “The one thing was they believed they had a chance and they worked for it They played every minute as hard as the first Uxbridge opened the scoring with 7:42 to go in the first off a corner The Spartans sent it in to Kendall Gilmore and the junior took a dribble in before sending a pass across to Amelia Blood with the junior smashing in the one-timer to give Uxbridge the early lead The Spartans kept up the pressure throughout the first half but the Redhawk defense did their job of limiting corners and shot attempts flung it out to Gilmore who blasted a shot on goal from outside the box the circle Aubrey Bouchard was there to get her stick on it and tip it past Richards to give the Spartans a 2-0 lead It was a great individual play from Ava Rosborough that gave Uxbridge a 3-0 lead at the intermission Gilmore sent a pass up the left flank to Rosborough The freshman dribbled into the circle and fired a backhand shot that zipped into the right corner of the goal with 24 seconds showing on the clock The Spartans added a goal with 10:49 to go in the contest off a corner with Bouchard knocking in a shot off a pass from Julianna Casucci Addie Blood took a shot that was deflected but Elyse Bouchard was there to corral the rebound and put it home to give the Spartans their 5-0 lead The second half saw the Redhawk defense slow down the high flying Uxbridge attack but the Spartans were able to capitalize on corner opportunities throughout “We increased our defensive lines because they have such hard hits,” Mahar said We had a gameplan overall and they stuck with it We wanted to get the ball in the air and try to capitalize on field position at times and try to slow them down We knew how fast they were and the tempo of their game.” you agree with our use of cookies to personalize your experience measure ads and monitor how our

take urgent action to clean up and restore Shepherd’s Bush — particularly Uxbridge Road So far 1,275 people have signed the petition ‘take urgent action to clean up and restore Shepherd’s Bush — particularly Uxbridge Road (100–500) — by supporting shopfront and streetscape improvements and tackling drug addicts Posting on the social media platform Nextdoor Noor A referred to the facelift Leyton High Rd received prior to the Olympics in east London where ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures show attractively painted shop fronts ‘This is what Shepherd’s Bush could look like if you sign the petition.’ wrote Noor Noor A posting about the petition on social media; images of Leyton The facelift improved the image of the area and has been popular with the public “They look more inviting and I think I’d be more likely to go into a nice looking shops,” wrote one Leyton resident The residents of Shepherd’s Bush want: ‘targeted action to improve the visual condition and vibrancy of Uxbridge Road (particularly between numbers 100 and 500) which has visibly deteriorated due to neglected shopfronts and inconsistent Council oversight.’ ‘Crime and anti-social behaviour thrive in neglected environments,’ they say ‘While the Council cannot control policing directly it does have clear powers – and a responsibility – to address the environmental decline that fosters criminal activity and makes residents feel unsafe.’ Specifically they want the Council to develop a three six and 12 month plan for physical and visual improvements ‘Numerous shopfronts are in a serious state of disrepair temporary signage scrawled in marker pens or printed on A4 paper and cloth banners serving as permanent signs This isn’t just unprofessional – it makes the area look deprived and neglected ‘Flats above shops are visibly rundown Fruit shops spilling out onto the road with trolleys parked on pavements making it dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists as well as unsightly ‘Residents live in this daily and visitors see it first If the Council truly cares about regeneration The petition organisers say some shops sit empty for months or years ‘contributing nothing to the community the area is being saturated with low-quality short-term-use businesses like chicken shops which offer minimal diversity or uplift to the local economy.’ ‘We are not asking for perfection – we’re asking for care Citing the Leyton example and also a local council initiative in Deptford they suggest ‘low-cost grants’ or temporary business rate relief schemes for businesses in exchange for visual improvements They also want the Council to exercise greater discretion over business licensing and change-of-use approvals ‘why are so many new chicken shops being approved when what we desperately need is variety The petition also demands the Council tackles the issues of drug use and begging saying the area has become a hotspot for anti-social behaviour ‘The constant presence of drug users and beggars – loitering and sleeping rough in doorways and public spaces has left the area feeling unsafe ‘Residents regularly report asked for money or intimidated on the street We have found people sleeping outside our door on more than 1 occasion has turned Shepherd’s Bush into a hotspot for anti-social behaviour that gives the impression of a forgotten and lawless place.’ with everything from suggestions for partnering with outreach and addiction support services increasing the visibility of Council enforcement officers exclusion zones or dispersal orders for repeat offenders The ePetition runs until Sunday 22 June and can be found here: Uxbridge Road petition  Read more stories on The Chiswick Calendar See also: Two men arrested in west London as part of Counter Terrorism operations
