Mr Pollicita was my PE coach in 1968. He was a very nice man. He devoted so much of his time to the students, and made Colma a great school to attend. He will be missed.

Mr Pollicita,
Wanted to thank you for being a wise and thoughtful Principle in my life. You knew how to reach the inner person. Thank you for being a real man.

A great and approachable principal at Colma. Was glad he was honored with the renaming of the school he so loved. Very few educators left like him. I feel priviledged to have had him in my middle school life.

Heaven has gained another angel! Thank you for the great memories that we all had with you. You were an amazing man and principal with a passionate heart. I will never forget you, and haven't in all these years. Rest in paradise Mr. Pollicita!

I worked at T. R. Pollicita Middle School for 8 years in the library and had the honor of meeting the "real" Thomas R. Pollicita a few times. What a kind and gentle man. My condolences to his family and friends.
