District 7 School Committee member Tiffanie Maskell abstained. She was the vice chair last term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>District 8 School Committee member Jessica Barnhill was elected Vice Chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Five years ago when Framingham was still a Town, all 7 of the School Committee members lived north of Route 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the chair and the vice chair of the School Committee both live south of Route 135.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The City Charter when it passed in 2017, called for 9 School Committee members, one from each of 9 districts, guaranteeing representation for all part of the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sousa, who was clerk of the School Committee for the last two years, was elevated to chair last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Former chair Adam Freudberg, of District 4, was nominated by Maskell for a third term, but he rejected the nomination.  Freudberg had been the only chair of the new 9-member School Committee since it was created in 2018. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong><br>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;53230&#8243;]<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sousa, 33, is the likely the youngest chair of the School Committee in the 322-year history of this community. She was elected in November 2019, and sworn in to represent District 5 on January 1, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She was the youngest elected woman city-wide in the City of Framingham, when she was elected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sousa is the first Brazilian-American to be chair of the Framingham School Committee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She was the first ever Brazilian American elected to the school Committee in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The School Committee now has as its leader someone who looks like 50% of its students, as a majority of the students in the district are not white. The School Committee also has a leader now who understands the struggles of entering a school district not speaking English, first-hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;When I initially ran for the Framingham School Committee &#8230; One reason was the wonderful education I received as a young Brazilian coming to Framingham decades ago, not speaking a word of English. That Brazilian girl, now a proud U.S. Citizen, and member of this committee, owes so many of the successes in my life to the wonderful education I received from the Framingham Public Schools,&#8221; said Sousa last night after she was sworn in by Mayor Charlie Sisitsky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sousa was chair of the district&#8217;s racial equity and inclusion subcommittee last term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong><br>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;54526&#8243;]<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>***<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"869\" src=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screen-Shot-2022-01-06-at-8.04.58-AM-1024x869.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-58784\" srcset=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screen-Shot-2022-01-06-at-8.04.58-AM-1024x869.png 1024w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screen-Shot-2022-01-06-at-8.04.58-AM-300x255.png 300w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screen-Shot-2022-01-06-at-8.04.58-AM-768x652.png 768w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screen-Shot-2022-01-06-at-8.04.58-AM.png 1522w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Jessica Barnhill &amp; Priscila Sousa<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo of Sousa &amp; Barnhill (left)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First posted at 12:25 a.m. Last updated at 8:28 a.m. *** [broadstreet zone=&#8221;58610&#8243;] FRAMINGHAM &#8211; For the first-time ever the Framingham School Committee has a woman of color as its chair.
