HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM DEEDA: As I wait for debris pickup for our once-icy tree limbs, I nd it hard to believe it is already time to plan for summer break. To help make it a bit easier for parents, this issue includes our annual Camp Guide. Starting on Page 19, you’ll nd six pages of local summer camp listings including a few facts about each one to help you determine which might be right for your kids. Deeda Lovett, GENERAL MANAGER
FROM DARCY: I cut my teeth as an education reporter, so even though I am not a Dripping Springs resident, I am captivated by the story of the Dripping Spring ISD bond failing and the district’s plan of asking voters for a new bond in May. There are so many state issues that can be seen in the fast-growing district. Read Elle Bent’s story, starting on the front page, for more information. Darcy Sprague, EDITOR
CORRECTION: Volume 15, issue 10 A graphic on page 22 noting the projected student enrollment of Dripping Spring ISD skipped a school year. The correct data can be found on Page 30 of this issue.
