MS 223 Suffers the Worst Cuts Yet!!!!
Budget cuts are not the problem this time around. The types of cuts suffered by Mr. Gonzalez and Mr. Byrne were shaved heads, much to the delight of the Eighth Grade Class. As you already know, this year's State Math scores were the highest they have ever been at our school. Mr. Gonzalez and Mr. Byrne both bet that if the students surpassed last year's scores that they would gladly have their heads shaved as the Eighth Grade class looked on with howls of laughter and cheers. Once again, congratulations to the Class of 2009 on their win and good job to Mr. Gonzalez and Mr. Byrne for being good sports. Click here to see more pictures.
