Sailor Dominic Evangelista Surprises Grade 1 Students

Mrs. Berteletti's 1st grade class had a surprise treat the day before the Winter break.  Sailor Dominic Evangelista, a 2014 Stoughton High graduate, was home for the holidays from the U.S. Navy.  Mrs. Berteletti's class had written Sailor Dom a letter in November when they learned about Veteran's Day and he had told them that he would come to visit them sometime to play football with them.  The rain kept them inside, but the students had some great questions for him.  He even got an appreciative hug from one student.
