Talladega City Board Members Honored

Hal Henderson Elementary School started the day early on January 26th with a wonderful breakfast to honor Talladega City Board Members. First grade teacher, Melissa Barksdale with assistance from her husband, created a wonderful spread of breakfast treats.

Under the leadership of Susan Haney, Carol Joiner, Debbie Lackey, and Sandy Sims helped to decorate the lunchroom in a festive snowflake theme complete with candles. Teachers across the school pitched in to provide student-made decorations. Mr. Wilson, Henderson's custodian made sure all the tables were set up and everything was shiny clean. Darenda Stephens, a lunchroom staff member helped to provide tablecloths and drinks.

During the meal board members, Central Office staff, students, and Hal Henderson staff previewed a slide show entitled Talladega City Schools...a Hometown Education. A special thanks goes out to teacher Kathy Clay for sharing the LCD machine and smart board for the presentation.

Student Council representatives were in attendance to welcome board members to the school and enjoy the breakfast treats. When asked by the principal, Alicia Laros, what they would like to say about their school, one student said it best. With a big smile on his face, he stated, "We have a great school."

Indeed they do because with this team approach, they provided a very classy event!
