Greetings from the superintendents office. We just finished a crazy few weeks with an academic pep rally, bond issue and accountability testing. On top of that we got news that we were again the #1 district in the state. The academic pep rally was something to see. More than 4000 people jammed Bronco Stadium on Thursday, March 6th to see cheerleaders, dance teams and bands play. It was amazing and overwhelming the response we had. Free food did not last long. Thanks to the PTO's and Bronco Backers for your help. We could not have done this without you. Thank you to the parents of our kids for being there. Copper Mill won the spirit contest and Northwestern Middle had the highest attendance. They will receive a spirit award to place in their trophy case. All students will receive a special ice cream treat today.
Our bond issue was passed by a large margin on March 8th and I thank the people of Zachary for their support. This will not raise your tax millage and the money will be used to build a two story classroom addition at Zachary High and a 12 classroom addition at Copper Mill.
Accountability testing was completed last week and it is always a time of excitement and apprehension. I know that our students will do well because they are taught by the best teaching staff anywhere. Our teachers have character and do what it takes to get the job done. Our students work very hard and they want to succeed and they do. Thank you students and teachers.
On a closing note, this community is something special. I know that I talk about that often and some people may get tired of hearing it but it is true. Our schools have always been good because our community has demanded they be for a long time. The founders of this system were visionaries that saw an opportunity to build something very special and they did. I can't explain it myself because we defy the statistics. I say to you, thank you and we will always have high expectations for our kids and continue to work very hard to produce a product that you are proud of. Have a good day. Warren Drake
