Congratulations, Antonio Mantero, Notre Dame High School West Haven Class Of 2021

SHELTON-DERBY, CT — The high school seniors of 2021 have had an experience like no other in a century — a year upended by a pandemic and by lockdowns that kept them from enjoying many of the activities that previous seniors have taken for granted.

Patch hopes to help make it up to those seniors by giving them a special sendoff. We asked parents and other family members to pay tribute to this year’s grads using a special submission form so we can publish those tributes one by one.

Notre Dame High School West Haven student Antonio Mantero will graduate this year.

Plans after graduation: Attending SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry to study Wildlife Science or Conservation Biology

Accomplishments: Antonio graduated with Honors. He was inducted into the National, Spanish, Math and Tri-M Music Honor Societies. He received senior medals for Religious Studies, Chorus, Spanish and Social Studies. Antonio had a leading role in 13 school theatrical productions for which he received 6 nominations and 3 awards.

Special message: We love you so much, and we wish you God's protection and abundant blessings in all you do!
