Local Student Takes Charge as Superintendent for a Day in Lamar CISD

On April 25, 2024, in Rosenberg, Texas, the Lamar Educational Awards Foundation (LEAF) held its third annual Superintendent of the Day event. During this event, a student is selected to perform the role of the Lamar CISD Superintendent for one day. This year, William Frazier, a sixth grader from Wertheimer Middle School, was chosen. His activities as superintendent included issuing an executive order and participating in various administrative tasks.

William started his day by declaring that all nearly 50,000 students across 48 campuses should wear 90’s attire and participate in a dance party. He was welcomed at Wertheimer Middle School with dancing and cheers from his peers and staff, including Principal Toni Scott.

Throughout the day, William engaged in typical superintendent duties. He sampled new school meal recipes, processed payments to vendors, and took part in the hiring of new principals. These tasks provided him with insight into the responsibilities and decisions involved in managing a school district.

William also toured the district with the Lamar CISD Police Department. He met K-9 officers Jumbo and Tigi, received an honorary badge, and a customized uniform. The officers gave him a detailed tour of a patrol car, adding a practical element to his experience.
