Proud to be a Galatas Greyhound!

Monday was an exceptionally exciting day at Galatas!

Mrs. Lindsay was awarded the Principal of the Year Award for the State of Texas!

Dr. Stockton knew all along about her award, but wanted to surprise her.  He said he wanted to read to our entire campus.

DSCN0531

Instead, all of TEPSA (Texas Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association) came to our school along with our whole school board for the presentation.

DSCN0532

When the presentation was over, we had a very special visitor stop by K2!

DSCN0534

Dr. Stockton decided to read to our class!

 DSCN0535

He only read to two classes that whole day!  We are so lucky!

 DSCN0537

Our kids did great!  They listened quietly and asked questions when it was over!

WOW!  What a wonderful day it was!
