It takes so many wheels turning and all the right people to make events such as graduation, senior breakfast and state track, etc. a success. Today Mr. Cannon pulled off another graduation without a hitch. Mr. Davis was there from beginning to end as he always is to get everyone parked and traffic flowing safely. Our senior sponsors were there to help get all graduates ready to walk. The band and Mr. Ellis performed perfectly for our seniors. School board members handed out diplomas. Coach Poole and Mr. Poole made sure every name was called and all had a diploma. Charlotte Rose Flowers and Gifts allowed us to use their beautiful ferns once again. It took all this and more to make this event and all others successful. We appreciate the support given to our Curley Wolves! Congratulations to the Senior Class of 2023!
When you have graduation and ACT Aspire testing a day apart, it takes lots of teamwork to get tables and chairs where they need to be. Thank you to Eli Lowdermilk, Rocco Loe, Talan Smith along with previous graduates Jeffrey Williams Jr. and Cade Poole as well aa Coach Poole, Tim Loe and Mr. Cannon for moving 80 chairs after graduation to the elementary school for Mrs. Robbins. Everyone isn’t pictured but they all got the job done quickly! #impactthepack
