Putting Students First

Yesterday we dedicated the new high school auditorium, auxiliary gym, and other various building renovations. It was a joyous music-filled afternoon with students, staff, and community members, as well as some of the people who designed and accomplished the work all in attendance together.

It was heartwarming to see our students performing for the first time in the beautiful new facility. I can't thank them enough for their dedication to their school and their commitment to giving back to the community by sharing their talents. I'm always puzzled by those who don't attend such events - It was such a special time in our school's history.

Proud to be a Tornado.

We're All in This Together

Here's the deal:

If we refuse to share our intellectual, educational, experiential, and yes, financial resources to solve the problems that affect others, then we sacrifice the greater good for our own personal goals whatever they may be.

humanity-unity

The day we protect our own little corner of the world and refuse to listen to the point of view of others to figure out how to protect their worlds is the day we lose our humanity.
