Congratulations to Penn Fellow Devina Bhalla

No one was surprised when Devina Bhalla became a teacher. In fact, back when she graduated from middle school in Connecticut, one of her seventh grade teachers told her to give him a call in a decade when she was ready to come back and be a teacher herself. She didn’t end up returning to her alma mater in Hartford, but she did send an email to let him know when she got her first teaching job at Gilman in 2021.
