A Person to Remember

m

Mrs. Carratald

“I feel that through the ygars I have grown closer to
her, especially after experiencing Close-Up with her last
year. That trip opened my eyes to see the greartsioman and
teacher that sheds*”* These s£ntirnents,-asvstatecPby,s$wi£>r
Elizabeth Delgado, aVe^haredhlso by many girl^ w i'o have
come in contact with Mrs. Carratald.
For the past ten years Mrs. Catratala has touched the
lives of many students. Her lo\|C and passion for history is\
evident in all of her classes. She .constantly exhibits great \
enthusiasm in order to spark her studearts’ imaginations.
‘■■One event that truly exemplifies-Mrs. Carratala’s
’
patience and good heart is the 1999 Close-Up trip to
Washigton D.C. In this trip she took 42 hyper, sixteen year-
. olds along with her daughter, Sofia, on a 22 hour bus ride
back to Miami due to an American Airlines’ pilot strike.
Even after the-exhausting ride she remained warm and
caring as she said farewell to the. students.
For this and mucn more, the 2000 yearbook class
gratefully dedicates this yearbook to Mrs. Carratala.
