WACO, TX â Waco ISD is mourning the loss of longtime educator Lester McDowell.

He went on to serve as an assistant principal and principal at G.W. Carver, then as principal at Lake Waco Elementary School, Provident Heights Elementary School and finally G.L. Wiley Middle School, where he led the campus from 1999 until his retirement in 2003 after 28 years with Waco ISD.

âThis is a class that changes in real time,â Thacker said Thursday. âAt a momentâs notice, breaking news happens, and you just kind of have to throw out what you had planned and go with the moment.â
Roanoke Valley educators on Thursday sought to support their students and provide answers the day after an angry mob of President Donald Trumpâs supporters stormed the Capitol, causing members of Congress to evacuate and temporarily delaying the certification of electoral results.
