Today we highlight the Cato Elementary Principal, Shyrel Lee. “You are where you are today because you stand on somebody’s shoulders. And wherever you are heading, you cannot get there by yourself.

We exist temporarily through what we take, but we live forever through what we give.” Vernon Jordan #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
