On October 21st and 22nd, our Beta Club traveled to Lagrange, GA to compete in our regional Leadership Summit. McKinna Riddle, chosen as Leadership Ambassador at last year's summit, was busy with her official duties as our other students competed. We were recognized as an Outstanding Leadership School, and we had qualifying scores in all 3 of our competitions - Beta Blitz, Project Proposal, and Collaboration Connection. These students will be competing at the National Convention in Nashville this June!

Statement from the Superintendent:
It is with deep sadness that I share the news of the passing of one of our beloved Hackleburg Elementary teachers, Lesley McCollum. She was a valued member of our school community whose dedication, compassion, and commitment to students left a lasting impact on all who knew her.
Our hearts go out to Lesley’s family, friends, colleagues, and students during this incredibly difficult time.
We will continue to honor Lesley’s legacy in the days ahead. Please join us in keeping her loved ones in your thoughts.
