In a surprise announcement, the Gilmer County Charter School System Superintendent Dr. Shanna Wilkes told attendees to the Board of Educations work session Monday night they had hope.
With citizens outcry and even petitions signed to plead with the School Board to make Graduation on the Football Field a possibility, not many believed the idea would actually be possible due to Construction activity and safety hazards. However, Dr. Wilkes told citizens Monday that, due to the tireless efforts of the Parrish Construction Group, students are going to be able to hold their Commencement Ceremonies at Huff Mosley Stadium this Friday.
Unfortunately, this news comes with a sour note as a bleak weather forecast may still force attendees indoors after all. The Board will be forced to make a final decision Wednesday as to where to hold the ceremony so that setup and other preparations can begin.

Bahahahahaha!!!!!!!!! What a stupid thing to be angry about! I've been to a number of graduations in that gym thay were just fine. I think it's karma, not mother nature, that's bringing the ol storms for the giant babies who couldn't stand the thought of their precious lil grads having to tough it out in the gym! Oh, dear Lord, think of the children!!!
