Our first Convocation with Superintendent Travis Fanning was full of energy, laughter and plenty of Hornet pride. It was great having the whole Huntsville ISD team together again, and our student performers absolutely brought it!
The competition for the Hornet Spirit Stick was fierce, but after a tiebreaker, Scott Johnson Elementary came out on top!
We’re excited for what’s ahead and ready to get to work.
