Anthony Ficarrotta reaches 1,000 points for Dobbs Ferry. The junior does it in patented fashion, draining a step back 3 to give him 14 points in the half.
Blind Brook leads 34-31 at half. Pressure off now for Ficarrotta. Should be a good 2nd half. @DobbsFerryHoops

Earlier this week, students in U.S. History participated in a baseball/softball “walk around the park.” Students worked with a variety of scaffolded regents tasks. Each “base” represents different levels of complexity. @JGevargisMizi@johnfalino1
