News: One Big Happy Family for the Future
Danielle Ryan and Christian Sim
Tying the knot is a huge deal for many people. Our beloved 7th grade science teacher, Ms.Balmonte, has recently gotten married on Aug. 23, 2014. For most of our 8th graders, it may be a little tough to refer to her as Mrs. Makovsky, but she said is still alright to address her by Ms.Balmonte. Even though Mrs. Makovsky has opened a new chapter in her life, she still plans on teaching science at Rancho Pico, because this is where her home is, and she enjoys working with students and informing them about science.
Mrs. Makovsky has been with her husband for one and a half years before the proposal. He proposed to her on a private helipad and the wedding was held in Blaine, Minnesota. The reception took place at Lord Fletcher's restaurant at Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota.
Mr. and Mrs. Makovsky now plan to travel to Spain, Greece, or Switzerland for a honeymoon to kick off their marriage and come together as family.
During an interview, Mrs.Makovsky stated,”There is not a huge change after being married, but I guess that’s a good thing because it just feels really natural.” Hoofbeats and all Rancho Pico students sincerely wish the best of luck and a happy, healthy relationship for the future.
