Disponible en: Español


Representation Matters.

In March, Anderson Academy first-grade student, Taylor Young, decided to feature Superintendent Dr. LaTonya M. Goffney for her Women’s History Month project. Each student was asked to write about a notable woman in history. Taylor chose Dr. Goffney to research, write about, and depict because she is the first African American woman to serve as the Aldine ISD Superintendent. On April 22, Superintendent Dr. Goffney made a special surprise visit to Anderson to meet Taylor and thank her in person. Dr. Goffney plans on hanging the framed artwork in her office.
