We are #CISDProud to share that during the recent Board Meeting on Aug. 28, Valley Ranch Elementary was recognized for receiving the 2023 Student Leadership Award from the Texas Elementary Principals and Supervisors Association (TEPSA).
This remarkable recognition is a testament to the exceptional efforts of the Valley Ranch Elementary school community in fostering a culture of leadership and service. As a "Leader in Me" campus, Valley Ranch Elementary has embraced Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Happy Kids, and it shows in the amazing initiatives these student leaders have undertaken.
The dedication of VRE student leaders knows no bounds. From organizing a food drive for the Lions Club to embodying the role of school ambassadors for tours of Valley Ranch Elementary, their commitment to serving others is truly remarkable.
Not stopping there, these amazing student leaders set up a booth at the Coppell EarthFest. With boundless generosity, they distributed free sunflower seeds in newspaper pots, spreading the spirit of sustainability and growth within our community.
This statewide Student Leadership award is a testament to the dedication, passion and leadership Valley Ranch students exhibit every day. Let's celebrate Valley Ranch Elementary for setting an inspiring example of how leadership, service, and community spirit come together to create a brighter future for all. #CISDMissionPossible
