The Wills Point ISD Board of Trustees met at the district’s administration office Monday night, offering up recognition to principals and support staff members before tackling an agenda that included a public hearing and approval of the Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas.
Business opened with board members offering up words of appreciation to Dana Chelette, Melanie Mullin, Casey Cochran, Jeff Russell and Jeff Smith to commemorate Principal Recognition Month.

Wilson stressed, “You deserve to be recognized and you deserved to be honored.”
Superintendent Scott Caloss echoed a similar sentiment stating, “We’ve gotten off to a great start during this school year and I attribute that to the principals on our campuses. They work hard and put in countless hours. They’re dedicated to the students and staff on their campuses and I really appreciate all that they have done. It’s been a privilege and honor to work with you all.”
Board members also added recognition for the support staff of WPISD, presenting certifications of appreciation to those in attendance. Caloss stated, “I hope that you realize how important you are to this district.
