Welcome to WACO Nation,

​

I am so excited for the start of the 2022-2023 school year. We have been diligently preparing for the arrival of our students and staff. With great anticipation, we have planned and organized. This year will be the best year yet in WACO! The dedication of our staff and the potential of our students is unparalleled. This combination will take us to new heights! 

As this school year progresses, I want you to know that we are serious about developing the whole child. This means that we will meet our students where they are. It is critical that we provide a safe environment that gives opportunities for growth to every child. Our students can expect a dynamic atmosphere that encourages creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving. Our recent Cognia accreditation has only emboldened us to continue the great work that they recognized when they named us a School System of Distinction. The bar will continue to rise, and so will we!

We have a lot of exciting projects on the horizon, and many of them will come to fruition this year. Please make sure that you connect with us through our new communication platform Parent Square. Communication and transparency are critical components of your child’s education and development! Do not hesitate to reach out to us, if you have questions or concerns! Our door is always open.

​

Sincerely,

Dr. Rickey L. Edmond

Superintendent
