Fireworks, family gatherings, and parades; is that all July
4th is about? As we think
about the meaning of Independence Day, we can focus on appreciating the
opportunities in our great country and the community around us. Citizens of our country have the freedom to choose
their own destiny. Some choose to be
farmers on large agricultural plots of ground; some farmers even hold a
secondary job. Still other neighbors are
entrepreneurs and have enjoyed the freedom to initiate and build a company of
their own. Some of us in America love to
serve and work in occupations such as education, retail, or service industries.
As our students begin
their learning adventures in pre-kindergarten and work their way through 12th
grade, they have the opportunity to dream big become anything they want to be!
Columbia School District gives our students the opportunity to succeed in
today's global society. This begins in prekindergarten with cooperative play,
learning strategies, and introduction to technology. Throughout the rest of
their path to success our students experience music, art, physical expression
in the form of various physical education classes, challenging learning
activities, and amazing array of technology
opportunities, including summer enhanced learning activities like robotics,
math camp, literacy camp, and leadership opportunities!
Our newly renovated facilities give our students an incredible
advantage! Our children's educational
foundation lights a path to their future and prepares them for a successful
career! Our students have the
opportunity to make a choice whether to continue on the road to college, attend
a trade school or serve our country through the military. As we remember the
awesome Independence Day celebrations let us also rejoice in these
opportunities were given to us by those who sacrificed for our freedom.
