From the Principal

As principal, I have the pleasure of interacting with such great students, staff and parents. Last week, the school pulled together while I was hospitalized. Staff, parents and students sent me well wishes, prayers and even fed my family.
As I get back on my feet, I have been checking my blog. One student set a reading goal like I suggested a few weeks ago and she reached it. Another student wants to start a reading club where fifth grade students read to younger students. She has a goal and is taking the steps it takes to reach it.
What is a better testimony of my life's purpose than to read and see and experience the students being Driven to Succeed and the staff and parents following the mission of Building and Enhancing Success.
In Devoted Service,
Lisa M. Carter
