Here's a look at Superintendent Donny Lee's first day of school in WFISD
Smiles and laughter filled the hallways and rooms of Wichita Falls ISD elementary schools Wednesday morning as Superintendent Donny Lee visited on the first day of classes.
"You want to go in and see all the good things that are happening on the first day of school," Dr. Lee said.
It was also his first day of school at WFISD. Lee was hired to take the district's reins July 25.
He has made it a priority in his previous years at other school districts to meet and greet kids and teachers on their first day of school.
So he continued this tradition here in Wichita Falls by stopping in at Lamar, Zundy, Milam and West Foundation elementary schools.
"You just take a tour of all the campuses, see all the kids, wave hi to them and see how they're doing and make them feel welcome," he said.
Lee was greeted with hugs from teachers and kids as he entered classrooms and navigated the hallways.
He also wants to make teachers feel welcome back to school and show the district supports them, Lee said.
Lee looks forward to helping and supporting the teachers and kids of WFISD throughout the school year and in the future.
"We are a team. It's team WFISD," he said. "We're all in this together."
