Connetquot Teachers Association Congratulates
Spanish Language Teacher Cheryl Sosa
Connetquot Teachers Association President
Ms. Loretta Powell was recently notified that Spanish
language teacher Ms. Cheryl Sosa had been honored
on March 28th by the Spanish Embassy. At a special
ceremony in NYC, sponsored by the Ministry Education
of the Spanish Embassy, Ms. Sosa was awarded an academic
scholarship to study at a Spanish University during
the month of July. This financial award will pay the
cost of tuition, room and board during her time in
Spain.
CTA President Ms. Loretta Powell congratulated Mrs.
Sosa on her selection and commented that " ...Cheryl's
work in the classroom brings the Spanish language
alive for her students. Ms. Sosa is a prime example
of the passion for learning that Connetquot teachers
provide for our community's children."
Ms. Sosa has taught Spanish for 27 years, 24 of them
at Connetquot High School, and annually arranges for
her students to travel to the Iberian Peninsula to
practice what they've studied in the classroom.
Congratulations to Ms. Cheryl Sosa, and best wishes
for an exciting period of study in Spain this summer!
Foreign language department colleague
Mrs. Eileen McGuinness congratulated Cheryl Sosa when
