There was a lot of excitement at Spaulding School on Friday morning, June 15. The students, K-2, had made congratulatory signs for the seniors who came to participate in the second annual Senior Walk through the halls of Spaulding School where most of the seniors had started their education. The seniors walked from the high school across Bruce Park and were greeted first by inspirational signs placed strategically along their path. As they entered Spaulding School, the seniors were welcomed by enthusiastic children as they walked down the hallways. Spaulding students and teachers stood, waving handmade signs, while Pomp and Circumstance played on the PA system.

Gabby is currently a student in the Honors Level French 4 class at Suffield High School, where she consistently performs at an extremely advanced level in this course. Gabby is descriptive, imaginative and accurate in her writing, and she speaks comfortably in French in class. When describing her daily activities or discussing conversation topics in class, she regularly inquires about new words or expressions and then integrates them into her speaking. Her class has many dynamic speakers and strong communicators in French, and Gabby helps to elevate this strong level of engagement and involvement in the group.
