From the perspective of a sixth-grader, anyone making difficult decisions that keep schools open and running and doing without a paycheck deserves a goody of some kind.
A group of students at Eastern Hills Middle School in Harker Heights wrote thank-you notes and attached them to a net in a nautical theme that matches a statewide month of appreciation for school board members.
Principal Gina Brown said it was important to her that students begin to understand the role that the elected board members, who serve as volunteers, play in their education.
New to Killeen ISD, but not to serving as a principal, Brown said she is impressed with the boardâs commitment and she sees a connection to the values she pushes at Eastern Hills.
