I loved Miss Jenson class. I remember debating current events and learning Civics. She was a lovely lady.
Miss Jensen was one of my favorite teachers at Dracut High School. She inspired learning by treating us as adults and her passion for history was contagious. It was an honor to have Miss Jensen as my history teacher. My condolences to her family, Kathy Pagones ONeill
My Condolences to the family Rita was a great teacher and a great person. She served the High School with dedication and was always happy around her students even ornery ones like I was. May she rest in Peace.
To the Family of Rita,
My sincere condolences! Rita and I were colleagues for more than 30 years at DHS. She was kind, thoughtful and always ready to lend advice, or a helping hand. When I started at DHS, she was the first person to welcome me. Rest In Peace!

Rita was always the first to send sympathy cards upon the death of our loved ones! It was very much appreciated! Rest In Peace Rita! ☘️
I was just talking about Rita on Christmas Day to friends and how she was a creative teacher for her students. She commanded respect and loved her work. She was a positive force at Dracut High School.
