ROCKETS OF THE WEEK ROCKETS OF THE WEEK

Kaleb Cubillo awarded his chain to Mr. Botti. He says Mr. Botti is an amazing teacher and person and is always willing to help anyone he can. Mr. Botti believes in giving second chances and is very inspiring!


Maritza Pacheco gave her chain to Mrs. Sabatino. She said Mrs. Sabatino is her favorite teacher. She always helped Maritza with her struggles and helped her get into general education classes. Mrs. Sabatino taught her a lot, and Maritza really liked her as a teacher.


Luciana Betancur Naranjo handed her chain to Mr. Roonan. She loves that Mr. Roonan says hello to her every day and says he has a fun way of teaching, so she really enjoyed his class.


Congratulations to the Teacher Rockets of the Week! Intermediate East is so proud of you for demonstrating how “Passion Meets Purpose”!

Field hockey is off to a great start. Unfortunately due to the weather we have only had one game. We came out strong and defeated Intermediate North, 4-0. Rose Humphrey led the team with 3 goals, while Annabelle Standfast scored 1. Defensively, Mackenzie and Ashlyn Bridges were unstoppable. Looking forward to our next game Thursday against Jackson. Let's go East!
