It was a pretty exciting morning here in Portland! Chris Serra, a gym teacher for Brownstone Intermediate School (5th and 6th graders) returned to work after an extended recovery period due to a car accident 3 months ago.
Staff, students, friends, and even his parents all got together to make sure his return was a memorable one. The kids were lined all along Main Street as he arrived in a limo, then they all followed him into the gym where they had hung tons of cards and letters and pictures. It was quite a scene! Here is a link to a story on the Hartford Courant along with some video. And another link to Melissa Pionzio's iTowns report here.
Chris is a great teacher and very popular with the kids so they were VERY happy to see him come back!
And making a cameo in the video is one of TSD's newest assistant photographers! Kate is a friend of Chris' and she was on hand to take a few pics (see below) this morning. Cool, huh?
Congratulations and welcome back Chris!!
