JACKSBORO, TN (WLAF) – Bella Sampieri (Above left) is on her way to becoming a pediatrician while her younger sister Abby (Above right) is headed to a TV news set as a meteorologist.  In the meantime, elementary school classes are on tap for both of them beginning today at Jacksboro Elementary School.  Bella enters 4th grade as Abby begins 1st grade.

Bella said, “I’m excited to see my new teacher, see my new classroom and I’m really excited to see my friends ‘cause I’ve missed them over the summer.”  “I like meeting new friends and new teachers,” said Abby.

School is a little different for the upbeat sisters than for the rest of the student body, because their daddy is the principal.  When describing what it’s like, Abby said, “Good” while Bella said, “Well, we’re always in his office after school.  That’s interesting.”  The question “on a good note” was asked, Bella said, “Sometimes (followed by a shy grin).”

JES Principal Steven Sampieri welcomes his daughters along with all the rest of JES students back for the first full day of school today.  (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED – 08/08/2019-6AM)
