2008 Bonny Eagle H.S. grad Joe Marro gave us our tickets to the Inauguration
   "Hey, did you used to teach at Bonny Eagle?," the nice young man asked me as we walked into the National Democratic Club. This was where we'd been told to go to pick up our Inauguration tickets on Sunday morning -- and Joe Marro, an aide to Maine U.S. Representative. Chellie Pingree, was the person waiting for us.  Come to find out, Marro graduated from Bonny Eagle in 2008. His mother, Lorraine Marro, works as an ed tech in special ed at the high school. After graduating from UMaine with a political science degree, Joe  interned with Pingree -- and now he's here in Washington working in her office. 
      Another BE grad, Steven Murphy, who was the editor in chief of the Eagle Times two years ago, is also working with Pingree's office in Washington and attended the inauguration. Steven, who attends American University in Washington D.C. and is majoring in journalism and international relations, was part of the group of 11 BEHS students who made the trip to Barack Obama's first inauguration four years ago. He said his first trip, as a sophomore, was more exciting, but that he enjoyed being closer to the action this time.
      In addition, Ms. Peg Maxwell, Bonny Eagle art teacher, also watched the Inauguration live from the Mall. We caught up with her Sunday night, gave her our extra tickets, and watched the Patriots (lose) together at a local restaurant down the street from the Capitol.

    Ms. Lannin, the advisor to the Eagle Times and a practicing journalist, traveled to Washington D.C. in January to "cover" the 57th Presidential Inauguration as part of a virtual field trip for her journalism students. She also Skyped with her students from the event.
