Rummel History
(as related by Mr Barocco)    
 I came to Rummel High School in 1992. I was originally hired to be 8th grade Guidance Counselor and Retreat Director. Since 1998 I have been a full time Guidance Counselor. This year, 2003-2004, I have all of the 8th graders and the 9th graders whose names begin with A-D. I enjoy working with the students and being able to provide help for them. I have three children, Drew 15, Jason 13, and Emma, 10. We live in Laplace.

Favorite Aspects of  Rummel
I have enjoyed my stay at Rummel.  It is a very fine school and I feel blessed and honored to be a part of the Raider family.
