The latest episode of the CISD We Value Podcast features CISD Communications Intern Mithila Vijay, a junior at CHS, interviewing Richard J. Lee Elementary Principal Chantel Kastrounis, who was Vijay’s principal. According to Vijay, Kastrounis is the embodiment of the CISD core value of authentic relationships.

Hear how CHS Junior Emily Fischetti considers being dyslexic as her superpower. “Being dyslexic only means that I learn differently,” she says.

As an elementary and middle school student, Emily had excellent grades and studied hard to please her teachers and family. She says she didn’t realize the pressure she was putting on herself to be perfect until she was diagnosed with dyslexia, ADHD, anxiety and depression. Once this happened, Emily says the pressure to be perfect eased. 

She defines success as making someone’s day better. “If I can make someone smile, make their day better and be known for being kind, then that is being successful in my book,” Emily says.
