Summer is here, and teachers have big plans

In a few short hours, summer will be upon us, and the halls are filled with gossip of upcoming summer plans. Let’s take a look at how some of M-A’s admin and teachers are spending their summer vacations:

Mr. Zito:

“I am going to go bake in the dessert because I hate this weather. 105 degrees is just how I like it. What is this—it’s May!”

Mrs. Caryotakis:

“I am going to the mountains for a week with my family. Then, I will spend my time de-fleaing my cats and doing date night with Mr. Caryotakis.”

Mr. Estrada:

“I am going to spend time with my grandchildren in the LA area. I am also going to Seattle to visit my great-grandniece.”

Mrs. Osborn:

“I am preparing for my trip to Israel and Egypt in December. I need to prepare now, this summer, because once school starts, all of my shopping must be done—completely finished, there is just no time after that!”

Mr. Stuart:

“I am going to spend a lot of time with my wife and newborn baby. Let me just say, there are going to be lots of walks.”

Ms. Mell:

“Let’s see, we are going to England and we are going to drive to Cotswolds then, from there, we are going to drive to Dover. In Dover, we are then going to take a cruise over to Ireland, see Dublin, and then stop in the Channel Islands.”

Mrs. McMills:

“I am teaching a program for advanced student from the Ravenswood School District. Sometimes they are not as prepared as the kids from Hillview and La Entrada for the advanced classes. This program will help they stay advanced. I am also going to Mexico and will probably go back to Bakersfield, my hometown, a few times.”
