Montgomery County Public Schools kicked off the new school year with a heartfelt message from Alabama's governor, who expressed deep appreciation for the dedication of teachers and staff. "You may not wear capes, but make no mistake, you are heroes," he declared, acknowledging the daily challenges educators face as they prepare to welcome students back to the classroom.

The governor, a former teacher himself, emphasized the vital role educators play in shaping the future of Alabama. "Strong students lead to a strong Alabama," he stated, reinforcing the idea that the success of students is directly linked to the hard work and commitment of their teachers. His message resonated with the audience, highlighting the importance of fostering an environment where students can dream bigger, be kinder, and work harder.

The meeting, held on August 12, 2025, also noted the absence of board president Mrs. Smith, who was away taking her daughter to college. The board extended well wishes to her and all seniors embarking on new journeys, emphasizing a sense of community and support within the school district.

As the school year begins, the governor's words serve as a rallying cry for educators and staff, setting a positive tone for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
