Last week, Comet, Yoselin Gomez was "Principal for the Day!" Shadowing Mills Middle School principal, Dr. Watson, Ms. Gomez monitored the hallways, participated in classroom observations, and meetings throughout the day. Ms. Gomez asked to interview Dr. Watson as part of a career project in her Family and Consumer Science class. After the interview, Dr. Watson exclaimed, "One day you should shadow me to see what my day is actually like." Well last Thursday was the day and Ms. Gomez had a wonderful time in her role. #thebestisyettocome #principalfortheday #millsmiddleschoolcomets #learningisrequired
