MEXICO – Mexico Elementary School music teacher Theresa Rutkowski, left, is proof that people can balance a personal passion with a rewarding career.
She and fellow Syracuse Silver Knights dance team members encouraged Mexico Elementary students during a recent school-wide celebration to chase their dreams as they take care of themselves and work toward achieving their goals.
After a short dance performance, Principal Robert Briggs reiterated Rutkowski’s message and told students to “Find something you love doing and more opportunities to keep doing it.”
