Student Speakers for the Round Rock World Class Summit

Round Rock ISD district and campus administrators gathered together for the RRISD's World Class Summit. Dr. Flores shared his vision for the future and shared steps that will be implemented as a result of the Strategic Planning Initiative this year. Ryan Smith, the district's Professional Development Director, provided great opportunities for administrators to learn and collaborate together.

My favorite things from the summit were the student panels. Mr. Smith arranged for students from elementary, middle, and high schools, to share their experiences being in Round Rock schools, as well as their opinions on what's going right and what they would like improved in their schools. They were all articulate and gave us important things to ponder.

I want to thank the Cedar Ridge student representatives on the panel, Wesley Dickerson and Uttam Eamani. Wesley is going to be a junior this coming school year. He is a leader in DECA and also served on one of the district's Strategic Planning Committees this past year. Uttam graduated this year and is going to be attending UT in the fall in the Honors Business Program. Both are outstanding young men with amazing futures ahead! Thank you, guys!
