Serrato student teaching in Holyoke

    Students, especially those in fifth and sixth grade, have been seeing a new face around Holyoke Elementary School since the beginning of the 2017-18 school year. Tanner Serrato will be spending the first eight weeks student teaching in Sam Distefano’s class and will move to Kari Sandquist’s first-grade class for the second quarter.
