Q: Congratulations! How does it feel to win the title, Homecoming King/Queen?

Ms. Avina: “All the students had a choice on who to make as Homecoming Queen.  I feel very happy that the hard work I have put into this school has been appreciated by the student body.”

Mr. Wu: “I almost didn’t come back this year, so I definitely have to share this honor with Mr. Murchison and the administrative team who worked overtime to bring over half the other teachers and me back. It was also cool because it was an award Ms. Avina and I could share with our class, the junior class.”

Q: What was your first reaction when you heard your name as the winner?

Ms. Avina: “I didn’t even hear it at first, and I just looked around at the other teacher…but then I noticed that they were looking at me. I was really surprised and I am thankful for the student body.”

Mr.Wu: “I felt extremely honored. I really love working at Irvington and at that moment, I felt so touched because it reminded me how lucky I am to be part of such an amazing community.”

Q: If you could bring any celebrity or superhero with you to Homecoming Dance, who would you take?

Ms. Avina: “Definitely Brad Pitt- he’s hot and has huge muscles.”

Mr. Wu: “Anyone from Girls Generation because they are my favorite girl band.”
