Leading in School and in Life

GOAL 8th grade girlsI just wanted to take the time to recognize a four of my 8th grade girls at Calhoun Middle School that are also in the GOAL (Girls Operating As Leaders) program: Saira, Tiffany, Cindy, and Miriam. These young women basically started the GOAL soccer program for girls in the Denton Independent School District as 6th graders and have represented not only Communities In Schools of North Texas but the GOAL program in an extraordinary way.

The girls have all been exemplary on campus, on the field, and in the community. Each girl is on A/B honor roll and have begun to mentor and coach soccer at Newton Rayzor Elementary. As fun as it has been to see them grow as soccer players at Calhoun Middle School, it has been even more rewarding to watch them grow into the leaders that they have become in all facets of life.
