“It’s so wonderful to see community support for schools of choice. Thank you to Mr. Westbrook, our staff, students, and the parents who make schools like ours a success,” said Tyler Classical Academy Campus Director Paula Biddle. “Public charter schools across the nation are celebrating the growth of school choice this week and it’s an honor for us to be a part of that effort.”
In addition to guest speakers, the festivities included a student council donation to The Salvation Army for more than $800, food provided by Chick-fil-A, games, giveaways and a special performance by The Morris Brothers emphasizing positive choices and good character.
