Current Event #2

A new elementary school in Connecticut will be named after Victoria Soto. Victoria Soto was killed in the Newtown shooting protecting her younger students. The new elementary school was going to be named after the school it was replacing, Honeyspot Academy, but the citizens in Stratford, Connecticut rather honor one of their own. Soto grew up in the area and her aunt even taught at the previous Honeyspot Academy. I think this is a perfect way to honor a hero like Victoria Soto. She saved her whole entire class without thinking of herself. The name will remind kids of the selfless behavior we should all exhibit.
