We're almost at the end of National Principals Month! Here's what executive principal Jack Purkeypile had to say about the principals in the Monterey feeder pattern:
"I had the honor of serving as Monterey's principal before moving into my current role, so I know just how special this feeder pattern is and the level of dedication each of our principals demonstrate on a daily basis. They show up committed to leading and inspiring their staff and every student who calls these campuses their educational home.
I want to thank my fellow principals for their incredible service to our district, our community and the future they are helping build through their support of our students. Happy National Principals Month!" #WeAreLubbockISD
