                                               The  entire  Carrollton  community mourned this  year when
                                          beloved High School teacher Robert De Los Santos passed away.
                                          Mr. De Los Santos had taught at Carrollton for more than ten
                                          years and his contributions were numerous. Aside from teaching
                                          Music  Humanities  and  various  Literature  courses,  he  also
                                          taught  Drama  for a  few years,  brought  bach  the  Masquerade
                                          Ball,  played in school masses,  and,  most importantly, touched
                                          our hearts and made us smile.
                                                We  will  never  forget  the  way  he  constantly  teased  the
                                          freshmen  or  his  mischievous  pranhs  and  practical  johes.  We
                                          will forever be able to chant together "First come the tears, then
                                          the  parent/teacher  conference,  and then  Lourdes",  as  he  often
                                          warned us about not studying. We will always remember how, at
                                          soccer games, you cheered us  on with rousing  cheers  meant for
                                          an entirely different sport. But,  most of all, we will all feel safer
                                          hnowing that there is a new angel in heaven watching over us.
