WISD had the pleasure of honoring Ron Smedley for his 12 years of service to the students, staff and community of WISD. Just a few of the accomplishments of the WISD Board during Smedley's tenure include, facilitating the building of several new facilities including the new high school as well as implementing new academic, athletic and other opportunities for our students.
Thank you so much for your service!!!!
