“I expect all of my racers to cross the finish line this year,” remarked Ms. April Allen, a recently hired first-grade teacher. “I used the term racers because I want to keep with the Strive For 55 theme,” she added. Strive For 55 is the theme for all Weldon schools for the 2022-23 school year. Dr. Dannie Williams, The Superintendent of Weldon City Schools has established the Strive For 55 slogan as the goal for the district’s students to reach at least 55% proficiency in all areas tested by the state.
“This is an all-hands-on-deck effort to increase the academic success of our students,” said Superintendent Williams. “It starts in every classroom and continues every day: our students will grow and achieve new heights,” he concluded.
In addition to achievement on state-mandated tests, how much growth students show in their individual academic achievement will be factored into the scores for the school system. Ms. Natasha Rouson, a veteran teacher who is starting her first year with WCS as a third-grade teacher, offered, “Our students have a need, and we’re going to have a great time and grow this year.”
