Special thanks to Board Secretary Natalie Wankum and Kristi and Michael Boles, operators of the David's Burgers in NLR, for coordinating this undergarment/sock drive for our elementary students. We appreciate the support of our community!

Mrs. Brigetta Starks, a social studies teacher at the Sixth Grade Campus, recently showcased her incredible dedication to our students.
When a colleague was out, Mrs. Starks went the extra mile by voluntarily teaching engaging science lessons to those students in addition to her regular social studies classes. She temporarily took on a second subject to ensure those students did not miss vital instruction.
Mrs. Starks. whose been with the district for 25 years, remains a model educator whose passion for students and commitment to her campus is truly inspiring.
Thank you, Mrs. Starks!

Jordan Keane, who teaches 9th Grade English Language Arts, received the Superintendent's Honor Roll recognition! Carmen Langston, the Coordinator of Reading, Literacy, and English Language Arts, nominated her for the honor.
