It was a night of celebration and camaraderie at the seventh annual Superintendent’s Banquet on July 18.

Administrators from all 44 Williamson County schools came together to recognize the amazing achievements of their schools and students during the 2016-17 school year.

“This event allows us to honor the hard work of our school administrators for the past year and then sets the tone for the upcoming year,” said Superintendent Dr. Mike Looney. “As I told our administrators, we look forward to celebrating another record-breaking year, especially where the ACT is concerned.”

Lipscomb Elementary and Brentwood Middle were awarded the Superintendent’s Superior Award of Excellence in Academic Achievement. This impressive award is based on TCAP raw scores for all students in all subjects and includes end-of-course tests at the middle school level.

Edmondson Elementary, Sunset Middle and Nolensville High schools earned the award for Highest Student Attendance during the year. Clovercroft Elementary, Grassland Middle and Brentwood High won the award for Highest Teacher Attendance.

Walnut Grove Elementary, Mill Creek Middle, Franklin High and Independence High schools were given the media award for the most Week in Review clips submitted.

Crockett, Grassland, Oak View and Winstead elementary schools were recognized for their Perfect Audits from 2010-2017.

Brentwood High School won numerous awards in the high school division including Highest Advanced Placement Participation, Most National Merit Scholars, Highest ACT Score and Highest ACT Percentage of 21 and Above.

Ravenwood High School was given the award for Most State and National Arts Recognition. Renaissance High School won the award for Highest Graduation Rate in the district, and Page High earned the Highest ACT Growth award.

As if the night weren’t already exciting enough, every school was given $500 to spend on celebrating the year’s achievements with the rest of the school staff.

Dinner was provided through the combined efforts of WCS Food Services and members of the Franklin High, Nolensville High and Summit High culinary arts departments.
