INFORMATION
Dear Community Residents,
Well, did the millennium start
January 2000 or 2001? We can certainly
argue the point forever. The millennium
promised many changes and we, as
residents of Williamson, are front row
center for changes too.
We have a new superintendent, a
new curriculum coordinator, a new
principal at the Middle School and a
new assistant principal serving both the
High School and the Middle School.
These, as well as many new teachers,
aides, and bus drivers; are all here to
help your children.
While positions may have changed,
our drive to succeed has not. Our scores are as good as many districts larger and
more wealthy than us. However, the status quo is not good enough. We must
improve our scores, and we must produce students able to succeed in today’s
world. All this, without losing sight of our students’ basic needs and educating
them to be successful people, not just good test takers.
We as a District: Board, administration, teachers, and support staff, want
your children to succeed. We are a part of the solution. But you, as parents and
students, are the most important part of the solution. We must all work together
if we are to be a great district. The best way to make this happen is to communicate;
for only as a whole, working together in concert, can we be successful. Don’t
be afraid to contact your student’s teacher, building administrator, the
superintendent, or a Board member. We must communicate to be problem solvers.
We must meet and discuss issues to improve. Only together can we improve
Williamson Central.
Good Luck in the new school year.
Richard Jordan
WCS Board President
