Favorite Memory from High School

I remember especially our great teachers, Mr and Mrs. Soucy, Mr. Webber, Mr. Sanders, Mr. Aieta, Mr. Adams, Mr. Leslie, Mrs Jernberg, Mrs. Frain, Mr. Thibodeau, Mrs. Mize, Mr. Seaver, Miss Skadeland, Mr. Davis, Mr. Fitzgerald, Mrs. Howard, and so many more. The debates Colonial Parker had with Mr. Bourassa in history class during the 1968 elections (they were actually civil and respectful!), Earth Day with Mr. Aieta and the projects we did in front of the class senior year, United Nations with Mr. Fitzgerald, labs outside with Mr. Leslie, the trip to the World’s Fair with the band, selling hotdogs at the football games, and staying after school almost every day until 4:10, just because we could. Trips to Boston with the Key Club. Great times!
