Goff joins Glasgow Students welcome new superintendent By GINA KINSLOW Glasgow Daily Times Kathy Goff entered Glasgow High School’s gym Friday afternoon to a standing ovation only minutes after being named Glasgow’s new superintendent.
The announcement took place during a special-called school board meeting held in the high school gym. Attending the meeting were faculty, central office personnel, students, bus drivers, food service personnel, parents, among others. “It’s an incredible opportunity that I have,” she said, adding she was humbled and awed by those who turned out to welcome her. “I have studied this district and I am honored to join you. I’m looking forward to the partnership we will form and the friendships we will make.” She told students she will be a visible superintendent. “I look forward to joining you whether it’s on the field, on the court, in the classroom, in the community, or wherever it might be for you to continue to be stars and furthering your education,” she said. After the meeting, students, parents, teachers and staff members had a lot to say about the new superintendent. Pat Jordan, who works in the cafeteria at Glasgow Middle School, said Goff seems like “a nice lady.” “It seems like she is qualified,” Jordan said. J.R. Rich, a GHS senior, also said, “I think she’s going to do some great things for Glasgow. I think she will do a good job.” Rich had one request of Goff — more snow days. Jessie Fant, a junior, said she would like to see Goff bring back ACT prep classes at GHS. “I heard there used to be a class like that a couple of years ago, and it would be nice to have something like that again,” she said. DeAnndra Thompson, also a junior, thinks Goff will be a good superintendent. “I just really, really hope we have a lot more opportunities to open up in our school system agriculture- wise. I know a lot of kids these days are into stuff like that,” she said.
