2010 New Year Resolutions

The school year seems to be passing us by and it is unbelievable to imagine it is the year 2010. During this school year I have felt that having a blog has facilitated our attempts to promote open communication with students, parents and our community. In the year to come we look forward to doing a better job of using technology and all it brings to help us keep you informed on upcoming events and student accolades.

As we begin the new year it is always good to look back and evaluate the past year as we make plans for the upcoming year. First, I am truly proud to be a part of such a great school district and faculty. One of the things that continues to impress me which I believe sets us apart from other districts is our district's Core Values which declares what we believe and what are guiding principles for decisionmaking will be based upon.

We know that your CHILDREN are OUR lasting legacy and by working together we believe we can help each student excel. Our Southlake Carroll Dragons continue to experience great success both while in our schools and as they leave our community. I am reminded of that fact as we see our current students being admitted to schools the likes of Yale, Harvard, Air Force and Naval Academies to Guildhall School of Music and Art. Likewise, we see their success as they earn their Eagle Scout Award for projects such as United Through Reading to watching our past athletes excel at the collegiate and professional levels.

Congratulations to our current and past students for their commitment to excellence in academics, the arts, to athletics but more importantly for being individuals of character who are giving back and making a difference in our community and world.
