"A principal that I would like to show appreciation to is Dr. Morrow at Annie Bell Clark Elementary school. Dr. Morrow made a huge impact on me and my friends. She is someone that I can rely on and other people can too. She is one of my favorite principals!"

"I believe that having a principal is an important aspect to run a school. Mr. Winger is the Eighth Street Middle School principal and I, as well as other students, appreciate him and everything he does. Mr. Winger knows how to connect with the student body, whether he’s dressing up on theme days or even having a conversation with them when they’re upset. He is well-disciplined and overall an amazing administrator."
