On January 6th Jose Pizarro, a Junior at A.I. Prince Tech, was given the award of Eagle Scout by the Three Rivers Council of the Boy Scouts of America. Jose is a junior in Information System Technology (IST) and is one of a handful of students who work at Travelers Insurance Company.

Patricia Mann, the IST department head, recently stated that she finds Jose to be a very dependable, studious young man who knows what he wants out of life. Jose plans on advancing his IST training and hopes to work at Microsoft Corporation. Jose used his determination to achieve twenty-five merit badges and during the implementation of his Eagle Service Project - the posting of the "Buckle Up Seat Belts" street signs throughout Hartford. Working with the Kiwanis New England Foundation, he presented his idea to over 2100 second-graders in the Hartford school system. According to the Boy Scouts of America, only 5% of scouts reach the status of Eagle. Prince Tech is very proud to have Jose in our ranks.
