Superintendent's Message

Congratulations to our Canton ISD Student of the Week, 3rd grader Lucy Pope. Lucy is the daughter of Bobby and Rosemary Pope. Her favorite subject is social studies and she enjoys acting and singing. She enjoys going to the summer camps at Tyler Civic Theatre Center where she works on her acting and singing by auditioning and performing in plays. When she gets older she wants to become a songwriter. 

According to Mrs. Morris, “Lucy is a solid and focused student who often flies under the radar with her quiet demeanor. She always does what is asked of her and consistently delivers quality work. Despite her reserved nature, she also enjoys the spotlight. Lucy’s quiet determination serves as a steady force within the classroom and sets a wonderful example for her peers. We are so proud that she is #ChoosingToSoar and can’t wait to witness the bright path that lies ahead for her.”

Wednesday, May 1st is School Principal’s Day and we would like to thank each of our campus principals for the work they do each and every day. We are blessed to have individuals that truly care about the success and well-being of our students.
