Z is for A-Z Schools

Today's photo of the day features the Guilford County Schools' Administration Building, located at 712 North Eugene Street. Here is where school board meetings are held and the superintendent has his office. This is the epicenter for developing policies and implementing procedures. It is the A-Z of education in Guilford County. If you have never attended a school board meeting, you might want to consider doing so. The more involved we are with the process, the more vested we become. If you can't attend the meetings, they are available on television. However, nothing beats being there to interact in person, and to take advantage of the opportunity to speak for three minutes. 

Today is ABC Wednesday and, since there is no "Z" school in our district and nothing (that we could find) is named for our 43rd governor, Zebulon Vance, we're billing this as A-Z school day. In that "ground ZERO" is a center point, the Eugene Street office is the district's "ground ZERO." However, especially after 911, that phrase has negative connotations. So, we're happy to say that we are clozing out GDP's A-Z schools series with Z is for A-Z, all things schools related, and in ALPHABETICAL ORDER!

I have enjoyed your ABC Wednesday schools. You were clever with your choices for "x" and "z"--always difficult ones. Hope you continue with another surprising ABC series.

Too bad Ground Zero has been co-opted, but I get your point. Thanks for your great view of your fair city.
