I’m at a loss for words right now
When asked what’s going on,
There’s turmoil in our district
With our superintendent done and gone.
Can I say that I am mad
With the injustice of it all?
For she’s leaving big shoes to fill
For whomever answers the call.
Do I say that I am sad
That our district is so divided?
We no longer act as one,
But instead, a ship misguided.
Would it be okay to say
I’m embarrassed and appalled?
My pride in my district
Has taken a mighty fall.
But when I look more closely,
There is still so much to love.
The people that I work with
Are going far and above.
For the students are always first
In everything we do,
Doing what is best for them
Despite actions of a few.
So when others start to inquire
About the direction that’s been taken,
I’ll stand up for our Panther Pride
Although we are a little shaken.
We mourn what we have lost,
We now hope for what is best.
We pray for positive changes
As we restart and reinvest.
