Welcome to Bessie Owens Intermediate
Career WeekTuesday, January 5th through Friday, January 8th was career week at Owens Intermediate. Each day was dedicated to a different university, On Wednesday the 6th, we had three very special guests, who were all former Owens Intermediate students. Ricky Gonzalez graduated from 6th grade in 2001 and now studies Marketing and Spanish at Notre Dame University. Rocky Chavez graduated from Owens in the mid-90s and has gone on to become a doctor. Sebastien Bauge graduated from Owens in 2002 and now studies journalism at Barrett Honors College at Arizona State University. All three guests gave inspirational speeches in five different classrooms about their time at Owens, their educational experiences, and their path to their current or future career. This was a fantastic experience for our students, and we need to thank Mrs. Gonzalez, our school counselor, for planning the entire event. Bessie E. Owens Intermediate is the G.A.T.E.
