Great start to a new year!

Looks like I am able to get to my Blog now, so here's the first for the year....

What a great start to the new year!  Our students are behaving well as they settle in for the coming year.  I think most, if not all, of them have figured out their locker, their schedule, and the lunchroom.  I cannot remember a smoother start to a school year.  I attribute that to our kids, you as their parents, and this extraordinary staff.

The construction of the additional classrooms is complete and we have moved all classes into the building.  That helps us keep students safer and more comfortable.  No more running to class in the rain.  No more bringing them to the building when there is bad weather.  Thank you citizens of Southlake.

As most of you know, I began my term as the president of the National Association of Elementary School Principals in July.  I haven't traveled during the start of school, but that will change.  I am in the midst of making a 'travel blog' so that our students can follow the action...especially when I visit schools and talk to other students.

Go Dragons!
