Show Stevenson praised As an out of stater who had been well pleased by the progressive progres-sive open-school districts that our children had attended previously, pre-viously, I was more than skeptical as we moved into Kaysville where the schools looked old and the personnel were remembered remem-bered by my husband who attended here 30 years ago. After several years of struggling with policies and people, I encountered Richard Stevenson, principal of Davis High. In over seven years and four children, he has impressed me, with no exception, with his desire to right wrongs as he sees the need, rather than defend a situation or persons actions that could have been improved. His way of handling me over the years has made me feel like a contributing parent and taxpayer rather than a critic and problem for him to handle. The enthusiasm he has shown for each new school year has amazed me. Dick Stevenson is a man who, in my experience, is more interested in improving the quality of Davis High and education than in protecting his image and institution from a non-threat such as myself. His graciousness and manner have taught me. . Thank you, Dick, for your many years of matchless service. Your leadership will be sorely missed. Sharon Waggoner Kaysville |
