TESTIMONIAL

 

"I have been on SBIC before and have avoided it because of previous experiences. It seemed to be a waste of my time. But this year you have made the experience pleasant and powerful. The way you did it made us feel like we really had input and our opinions were truly valued. I appreciate that. The success of this SBIC committee is reflected in how Rice is run as a school." --Dawn Smith, Rice Middle School parent and former SBIC committee member
