Big Changes Are on the Way to Selma City Schools Next Year - WAKA 8

Big changes are on the way to Selma City Schools next year.

“And that’s what we want to be about here in the Selma City Schools. We want to be data driven. And we want to allow that data to drive our actions,” said Byrd.Byrd says starting next year — 6th graders will stay at elementary schools — instead of moving on to School of Discovery. He says that will free up the SOD facility so that it can be used as a Magnet Academy focused on the Arts.

“If we look at the old School of Discovery, we have a state of the art auditorium. We have state of the art classes that are all designed for the arts. There’s no use of having these wonderful resources right here in Selma and us not using them.” “We just want to make sure that we are adding wrestling, that we are adding soccer. We want to look at adding tennis and golf. Our goal is to make sure that we address the needs of our scholars. And we need our scholars to be active. We want our scholars to have something to do everyday, all day.”
