Raising Academic Standards: The Champion City Competency Standard
Brockton once led Massachusetts in education. Today, high spending and low results have weakened our schools.
Stephen Pina’s Champion City Competency Standard sets a higher bar — requiring mastery in English, math, science, and civics while giving parents transparency and students real pathways to success.
It’s time to expect more and waste less.
Setting the Record Straight on Brockton’s $10 Million Transportation Shortfall
A recent Enterprise article suggested Brockton’s $10 million transportation shortfall was a sudden crisis. The truth is, this problem was years in the making—rooted in a pattern of political underfunding by City Hall and warned about repeatedly in audits, meetings, and budget hearings.
The Mayor’s Budget Shell Game: How Politics Keeps Brockton’s Schools Broke
Behind every “budget shortfall” headline lies a calculated political move. For five years, Brockton’s mayor and city council have withheld millions in transportation funding—then staged last-minute rescues to appear fiscally responsible. This press release pulls back the curtain on how politics—not mismanagement—keeps Brockton’s schools broke.
