Message from Superintendent G. Elgin Card
Dear Princeton Families,
Happy Summer! Although Princeton City Schools has completed another school year, our Viking Village remains active with summer programs and events, professional development learning, internship programs, and academic and athletic camps.
The end-of-the-year promotion ceremonies and awards were fantastic. It was to see so many young people full of joy and hope as they head into the next chapter of their lives, surrounded by supportive family members, teachers, and friends.
Congratulations to our Girls' Track State Champions in the 4x100 and 4x200! The Lady Vikes finished 3rd overall in the state. Highlights from Welcome Stadium include:
State Champion Lady Vikes 4x100m relay team of Mackenzie Givens, Isabella Williams, Ziyah Walton, and Erinae Coleman with a time of 46.64
State Champions in the 4x200 relay team of Mackenzie Givens, Isabella Williams, Ziyah Walton, and Erinae Coleman with a time of 1:38.76
Aleeyah Betts placed 2nd and broke the school record in the Discus with a throw of 143’4”
Mackenzie Givens placed 7th in the 200m Dash
Boys 4x400 Relay Team of Jared Farley, Trenton Cottrell, Brendan Braddix, and Ben Howell for finishing 6th in the state at the OHSAA Division I State Track and Field Championship
With my “first year” as Superintendent complete, I look back on the 23-24 school year and want to say a big thank you to everyone who welcomed my family and me back to Viking Country. I am humbled each day to be part of the Viking Family. I am so proud and grateful for our awesome students, engaged parents, outstanding staff members, and dedicated community members who continue to support and invest in our district.
As we approach Father's Day, I would like to take a moment to extend warm wishes and heartfelt appreciation to all the individuals who fulfill the important role of father figures in our community. Whether you are a father, stepfather, grandfather, uncle, mentor, or anyone who offers guidance, support, and love, your contributions are invaluable. Thanks for being a #DifferenceMaker!
Have a safe summer.
As Always…Go Vikes!
