This morning our guest speaker was the new Superintendent of Warren County Public Schools - Virginia, Dr Troy Wright. He shared his experience so far as he has been becoming familiar with our area and school system.
The community's overwhelming support and interest in our schools has been pleasantly surprising to Dr Wright. He commented that other districts do not have the incredible support like we do! This is awesome to hear! Go Warren County!!

Dr Wright has been spending a lot of time in our individual schools. So far he has been able to visit every school once. He is currently working his way through the schools again, spending an entire day at each. He shared memorable moments he was able to witness first hand. For example, one elementary gym class taught a group of youngsters how to ride a bike through grant money the teacher secured. Dr Wright explained the moment when the children had to pedal for the first time was both scary and thrilling. But the teacher did a fabulous job teaching the students and in the end those bikes were rolling along in the gym!!! Such a milestone moment for all!

Dr Wright shared "What is next?" for Warren County Public Schools:
- Budget discussions
- Strategic planning
- Part time students policy - classes available to home school students could be a possible option.
- Middle School schedules to match

Improvements to look forward to:
- Communication
- Collaboration
- Consistency in practice
- Higher levels of engagement for students

Thank you Dr Wright for your continued hard work and dedication! We appreciate you.

Thank you Dr Martin (Interim Superintendent of Warren County Public Schools - Virginia )...what a great presentation!
Dr Martin shared a few great stories with us at our 7am Rotary Club of Warren County meeting this week. He shared with us experiences from his youth and how a few caring/interested teachers helped change his young life & motivated him to seek out a career path in education. These teachers took interest in him. They encouraged him. They "saw" him. Teachers & adults who interact with children in a positive caring way, have such a HUGE impact! We don't always know what is going on in a child's home life. Be the adult who takes a minute to congratulate a child on a small accomplishment!! Be the adult who notices a naughty behavior but still encourages a better choice next time!! A smile, a high five, or even just a "hello" can make a huge difference.
Children can influence adults as well. Dr Martin shared the magic of sets of wide eyes looking up at you as you read a child's book to a kindergarten classroom. It's true. Eyes of wonder, innocence, and expectation can be healing and inspiring!
Dr Martin, thank you for taking the time to help Warren County with the hunt for a new permanent Superintendent!! It's an exciting time...and we are in capable, experienced hands! THANK YOU!
