In a recent public hearing held at Fulshear City Hall, community members gathered to voice their opinions on various local initiatives, with one proposal standing out among the discussions. Nadita Singh Ganesh, a parent and former PTA president at Randolph Elementary School, passionately advocated for the installation of a digital marquee sign at the school.
Ganesh, who resides on Island Manor Lane, highlighted the potential benefits of such a sign, not only as a means of communication but also as a significant fundraising opportunity for the school. She reminisced about the days when the school used a traditional birthday marquee, which had fallen out of use due to visibility issues, especially at night. “Having a digital marquee sign would be a great fundraiser for the school,” she explained, noting that parents would be eager to pay for their children's birthdays to be advertised in a vibrant and illuminated format.
The proposal resonated with the audience, as Ganesh emphasized the sign's ability to enhance school spirit and community engagement. “It would be pretty, it’s great to drive by, take pictures, and they can see it in the nighttime,” she added, painting a vivid picture of how the sign could transform the school’s visibility and connection with the community.
As the meeting progressed, other attendees were invited to share their thoughts, indicating a strong interest in community involvement and support for local educational initiatives. The discussions reflect a growing desire among Fulshear residents to enhance their community's resources and foster a supportive environment for local schools.
The outcome of this public hearing remains to be seen, but the enthusiasm for the digital marquee sign suggests a promising step towards enriching the educational experience at Randolph Elementary and strengthening community ties in Fulshear.
