Field Trip to Pompei
Frank J. Carasiti Elementary School students had a first-hand look at how to build a delicious pizza when they visited third grader Thomas Prestigiacomo’s family restaurant Pompeii Pizzeria in Rocky Point. Ms. Amanda Miller’s first grade class took a trip to the pizzeria where they rolled out dough and added the sauce and cheese for the oven under owner Mr. Vincent Prestigiacomo’s direction.
Assistant Principal Nicole Pletka added to the educational aspect of the field trip by reading “Pete the Cat and the Perfect Pizza Party” before the students enjoyed their individual pizzas. The students learned what the characters in the book learned – that the best kind of pizza is one you share with your friends.
Thank you to the Prestigiacomo family for this yummy connection to our Rocky Point community!
