Mr. LaPlante working on the GATE Computer

     Mr. LaPlante has been working at Upi Elementary for 21 years!  He likes the newer building and the friendly staff and faculty.  Mr. LaPlante thinks that Upi's technology needs to be improved.  We need a computer lab, an intercom system, and a fire alarm system. 

     Mr. LaPlante's job is to teach the gifted and talented children of Upi.  Students write and illustrate their own books, sing and dance, do art projects, and learn about the history and geography of the world.  He likes working with small groups of well behaved, motivated, and talented students.  He appreciates the support of Upi's administrators, faculty, and support staff.  He counts on the support of Upi's GATE parents as well.  Si Yuus Maase!
