Ms. La Bonte ’09

Is anyone here a doctor?

Red & Gold is finally here! Over the last couple of months, Bella Ramirez ’26 and I (Christina Vaughan ’26) have been a part of White Team. Our lovely fellow doctors are Lexie Curtis ’27, Siena Ruszack ’26, Melina Gonzalez ’26, Sophie Figueroa ’26, and Activities Directors Ms. La Bonte ’09 and Mrs. Huerta ’94. We are so excited for this weekend, and as we reflect on all that we did to help Red & Gold run smoothly, we wanted to share how much we love everyone on White Team.

Lexie, 

There isn’t a moment you aren’t smiling or bringing your positive energy into every room. We admire how you put your faith first in everything you do; it shows in the way you present yourself and the confidence you carry. We could not have imagined this White Team without your chaotic humor and kind heart.

Siena, 

You truly have a heart of gold. You are so compassionate and empathetic. You always know the right thing to say, and you are the best cheerleader for all of us. We appreciate your patience with us as we learned our White Team dance. We couldn’t have asked for a better social media manager.

Melina,

Wow! Your organization, dedication, and elegance are inspirational. You always seem to know what to do and never fail to take action. Thank you for being someone we can lean on when we need help. Your honest confidence shines through in the most important moments. We are so glad that we got to spend this Red & Gold with you.

Sophie, 

You are one of the hardest-working people we know, and it shows through the months upon months of work you’ve put into Red & Gold. You are truly genuine in all that you say and do. Thanks for all the laughs these past few months. You are so supportive and loving, and we always appreciate the way you encourage us to do things we don’t think we can.

Ms. La Bonte,

Thank you for your patience with us as we navigated Red & Gold from a new perspective. We will forever cherish the fun moments spent in Room 8, and we will never pass up a moment with Biggie. Your guidance to this team does not go unnoticed, and we appreciate all you do for Rosary.

Mrs. Huerta,

Thank you for being the answer to the many questions we had over these past months. We are so grateful for your confident reassurance and support. We have no doubt that you are someone we can go to whenever we need anything. Thank you for everything you do for us, all of us.

With love,

Bella and Tina

Ok. Now, it’s time to turn this TV off.
