"People are walking their dogs around all the time. There are two parks that are welcome for dogs. People are friendly and welcoming of dogs in the area. You’re also right by the charles river that closes every sunday so its a great spot to walk the dog. Whether the street is closed on sunday or its a week day its still a great place to walk the dog along the river"

This is the worst school in Cambridge!My children were bullied and faced a life-threatening situation for over 2 years yet the principal and teachers ignored it entirely. We reached out to the police department multiple times and filled more than two police reports . At the end the police officer who referred us to the person in charge at the school — but we never received any response.No one helped us. Not a single person — not the school district, not the councilwoman, not any leader or elected official. The system is broken, and someone needs to investigate the principal immediately. Children’s safety should never be ignored like this.
