Thankful
I want to express how thankful I am to be a part of this wonderful community. I hope that everyone has the opportunity to make a lot of memories with their loved ones this next week. For those that haven't experienced other schools/districts, you may not be aware how special Blanco really is in supporting its schools. I hope that everyone has safe travels and a Happy Thanksgiving!

Staff Kudos
- Tracey Baillio has jumped into her new role at our campus with so much energy, love and enthusiasm. You would never know that she hasn't worked with these kids and Mrs. Rubin all year long. She's a great addition to this campus and I'm so happy she's here! (Habit 1 - Be Proactive)
- A standing ovation goes out to Lighthouse Team for the amazing training that they put together on Wednesday. Everyone really enjoyed it! (Habit 6 - Synergize)
