Letter from resident Mary Kelly and Selectman Jay Kelly

Dear Editor, we are writing in support of Jamey Cutelis for Tewksbury School Committee.

Over the past year, during these unimaginable times, Jamey Cutelis and his fellow School Committee members have worked tirelessly to keep “education” on the forefront. Jamey has extensive experience, serving on the School Committee for nine years, which is a critical component [more than ever] in helping to reinforce policies, navigate through fiscal/budget uncertainties, and work in concert with our first-rate Administration and our top-notch Educators.

In closing, Jamey knows what it will take to keep our schools on the right track moving forward. Please consider a proven/positive difference-maker in Mr. Jamey Cutelis on April 10 in our Town Election.

Sincerely,
Jay & Mary Kelly
79 Salem Road, Tewksbury

Letter from Selectman Anne Marie Stronach:

Please join me on April 10 and cast a vote for Jamey Cutelis for Tewksbury School Committee.

Jamey Cutelis has worked tirelessly on four school building projects. As Chair of the High School Building Project, Jamey shepherded the project to completion. The project was completed on time and 15 million dollars under budget.

Currently, Jamey serves as the Vice-Chair of the town's latest school building project. The Elementary School Building Project will house grades 2 through 4. It will enhance the connection to the Ryan School (grades 5 & 6) creating a school complex at the Pleasant Street address.

His understanding of the MSBA's regulations coupled with his Town Budget experience makes him a great choice for the School Committee.

Please vote for Jamey Cutelis on April 10 and allow Jamey Cutelis the opportunity to finish what he is most passionate about - creating the best learning environment for our students and the best tools for our teachers.

Respectfully,
Anne Marie Stronach

Letter from residents Rich and Kathy Levasseur:

Please cast your vote for Todd Johnson as selectman on Saturday, April 10 in Tewksbury.

We have known Todd for years, he cherishes Tewksbury and is constantly striving to make it a better place for all residents. He is a known quantity who will be transparent with all issues, listen to every resident, and make decisions that are best for the town. He has proven his leadership skills in many capacities for the town. When we were going through difficult financial times in the past it was Todd who helped get us on a stable, sound, path.

As we emerge from the pandemic we are going to need a strong leader like Todd to help us. He is the person best suited for the board of selectmen in the upcoming election.

Todd has also been a leader at the Tewksbury food pantry for countless years. His children grew up in town, he coached them on local sports teams. Anybody who was lucky enough to be coached by him learned more than just a sport, they learned how to be a teammate, friend, and an all around better person.

We urge you to elect Todd Johnson as selectman on April 10th, experience matters and Todd Johnson has that experience.

- Rich & Kathy Levasseur
