Morris said in a press release, “Success is earned through discipline, effort and accountability. I’m excited to help lead the Panorama Panthers by building champions in the classroom, on the field and within our community.”

Panorama Activities Director Bruce Dahlhauser, added, “Taylor is an excellent relationship builder who knows how to create a positive, high-standard culture.
