I have had the blessing of hanging banners that read exemplary and recognized on the outside of a school.  It felt great at the time.  We had reached a threshold that the state had set and were able to hang banners.  It still feels great because I know we did what was best for our students.

When I finished the day today I reflected on why I went into the business of education.  I can remember the many days that my parents came home with smiles on their faces.  They loved what they did because they were in it for the right reasons.

We hosted a prom today on campus for our special needs students.  It was amazing to see the bright smiles on all of their faces.  I was tearing up, the parents were crying and many of the other folks in attendance.  They were crying tears of joy.

 It was also great to see so many of our students that escorted our special needs students.  They were just as happy to be part of the process.  What I saw today at Corsicana High School was a family.  A family that truly has love for one another.

While the prom was going on there were many other students from Corsicana High School out in the community and at elementary schools giving back through service.  

Yes!  You can be great and do things besides take STAAR tests!  We will always work hard to prepare our students for standardized tests, but we are much more than that!

Corsicana High School is an amazing school with amazing people!  I am glad to serve as the principal!
