June 18, 2003


Miami's Comstock Elementary School was honored by Gov. Jeb Bush for improvement in school performance at a press conference this morning. The school's performance grade moved from an "F" last year to a "C" this year. Comstock Principal Alejandro Perez was in Tallahassee to accept the governor's congratulations.

"This outstanding improvement represents the hard work of students, teachers, parents, volunteers and administrators," said Schools Superintendent Merrett R. Stierheim. "It shows that the members of a school community, working together, can move mountains."
