Message from the Superintendent
We are extremely pleased that you have accessed our home page on the World Wide Web. Without question, this district has experienced tremendous educational success throughout the years. I've said repeatedly that our school district is one of the best in the nation, and every day I continue to find evidence to support that belief.
Our teachers, staff, students and schools regularly win national and state awards. Each year we send students to the finest universities in the country. We're also an excellent provider of students who are interested in going directly into the workforce or military.
Our top goals are (1) strengthening and improving academics and (2) managing growth; neither goal can be achieved without the achievement of the other. With hundreds of new students enrolling each year, unquestionably we are the district of choice. With your support and encouragement, we will continue to provide a great education for each of our students.
As you look through this site, you will see many, many reasons for our pride, and excitement about what the future holds. Thank you for being part of our efforts to reach for even greater heights of excellence in the years ahead.
Sincerely yours,
Stephen W. Hefner, Ed.D.
Superintendent
