Congratulations to Angela Cranford, our Knight of the Week. Please read below what last week’s KOW had to say about why she was chosen:
Ms. Cranford returned to the Knight family with an open mind and a big heart, from stepping up to be an NHS advisor, to advocating for all students, and going above and beyond to serve every student in her classroom. I am blessed to be able to serve the student population with her, and she is a great mentor to staff as well.
