As part of my re-connecting with my high school days, I recently joined the Newtown High School Alumni Association, just in time to attend the luncheon on April 25. In terms of recruiting for next year's reunion, it wasn't a successful event for me as the one classmate I met I was already a "friend" of his on Facebook. The entire decade of 1980s only had a few people. Still, it was good to finally meet Jorge in person. I also got to meet the current principal, Mr. Ficalora, who was a math teacher way back in 1985. Mrs. Silverman, in pinkish clothes, had decided to retire - I had her for Biology. Thanks go to Mrs. Borromeo for arranging the event!
