District 6 City Councilor John M. Tobin Jr. said he will continue to press for education reform in the city.

"I’m going to continue to push for neighborhood schools," he said. "There has to be a real broad conversation in the city about the middle class. It all goes back to the public schools. I’m going to continue to be an advocate for neighborhood children.

Tobin said he will also bring up other important issues with children, such as dental care and mental illness.

"It’s not treated as a luxury, but a necessity," he said. "We have some great dental programs ... dental care is so expensive."
