100 for 100: PACS Middle-High School Principal Awards Senior for Perfect ELA Regents Score
PACS Middle-High School Principal Patrick Vrooman has always believed hard work should be rewarded and, continuing a longstanding tradition, recognized a student for going above and beyond.
Incoming senior Jessica Yesensky was presented with $100 by Mr. Vrooman for earning a perfect score of 100 on the ELA Regents examination given in June.
“This year, several students who were not required to take the regents still took it and did very well, with Jessica earning a perfect score,” he said. “I wanted to recognize her hard work.”
Mr. Vrooman started the tradition before his tenure at PACS while he was employed as a teacher in the Watertown City School District.
