Dear Parents and Students:
Welcome back! Let me introduce myself to you. I am Kelly Carrell, the principal of Spearman High School. It is an honor for me to be the principal of Spearman High School. I am beginning my 29th year in education and have been blessed to have been a teacher and administrator at all levels of public education, including large and small schools. The majority of my experience has been in the Texas Panhandle. I was born and raised in the Texas Panhandle and I am proud to call it home.
Becoming a Lynx is a blessing, and striving to enhance all levels of educational excellence is my vision. Spearman High School has a history of pride, as well as, strong educational and extra-curricular achievements. It is my firm belief and conviction that a strong bond between the community and school will ensure that the students of Spearman High School will excel at the highest possible levels and will be prepared to meet the challenges that await them as they move forward. The 2018-2019 school year will see excitement, energy, passion and achievement at all levels and our school will remember the benefits and rewards of the past.
Spearman High School met the academic standard on all of the STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) tests and performance indices for 2017-2018. The expectation for 2018-2019 is that our students will achieve at the highest academic levels on all state tests, as well as, the ACT test.
Thank you for allowing us to teach your students. We will give our best to them, and we expect them to give us their best.
Sincerely,
Kelly Carrell
Spearman High School Principal
