BROCKTON—Among the estimated 11,000 people who lined up for hours at the Hynes Convention Center in Boston Saturday to hear President Barack Obama give a pep-talk in support of Gov. Deval Patrick’s reelection bid were a handful of Brockton teenagers who took part in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

“It was just amazing,” said Brockton High School Principal Susan Szachowicz during an interview with WXBR 1460 AM's Kevin Tocci this morning.

She said last week Patrick’s campaign people contacted the school to be a part of Saturday afternoon’s rally because of the hype surrounding the high school’s success highlighted in a recent New York Times article and celebrated during a 40th anniversary for the school and its programs.
