The athletic calendar is in full swing, with UIL State Championships imminent in sports such as golf, tennis, track & field, softball, and baseball. These events are complimented by banquets, proms, and graduations, as well as significant UIL academic competitions. Our appreciation goes to the teachers and coaches who work diligently with minimal recognition, often leading them to consider their challenging circumstances as standard.
