WO-S School Board Please Read!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KFDM COOP]

From Van Wade The Orange Leader

By the way, WO-S powers that be, isn’t it time you buy a hurdle or two for the track program. After all, you’ll probably need two buses to haul the kids to Humble for the regional meet this week after all the success the kids had at district.

Heck, squeeze them all into one bus and ya’ll might be able to fix the long jump pits. The kids deserve it, they really, really do.

After seven years as West Orange-Stark High School Principal, Mike Mason is being relieved of his duties. “I have decided that the best interest of the District will be served if we seek new leadership at the WO-S High School,†said Supt. Dr. O. Taylor Collins. “We are currently receiving applications for Principal of our high school.†Collins said Mason will have an opportunity to take another position in the district. Mason says that nothing has been decided at this time. Another principal position is open at the Middle School. Anitrea Goodwin has been named to the central office position of Executive Director of Federal Programs and Special Initiatives. “I am pleased that Mrs. Goodwin will be leading federal programs and some special instructional initiatives. With the influx of new federal dollars in the stimulus package, there will be much added work in these important programs,†said Dr. Collins. She will begin her new duties July 1. Collins will also have a decision to make at Oates Elementary. Bill Conway was brought out of retirement and signed to a one year contract to be the principal there. Collins said a decision will be made soon on whether Conway will be back. Collins is hoping to have Sheila Perry back as principal at North. Perry has been ill and Paul Hardin has been serving as interim principal. Bennie Smith is expected to return to Anderson Elementary next year according to Collins.

Mr. Conway is a school board member for Silsbee and a former coach and administrator in Silsbee. He is a very fine man. WOS is lucky to have had him this last year.
