"one picture is worth a thousand words." Fred Barnard 1927
We want our students to always succeed. The PTO has been working on a plan to try an reward the kids if they meet some goals set out for them. One possibility that is currently being discussed is a reward trip to Wichita Falls. The standard will be set so that the students will be challenged to accomplish their best. The following is a quote from Rick Boxx, “Sometimes we can be good at whatever God has gifted us with, but to be great takes some pain and becoming absorbed with going the extra mile.” Let’s strive to be GREAT!
