Murray-Williams Honored as Eagle Scout

Congratulations to Emmanuel Murray-Williams on reaching the coveted rank of Eagle Scout. He joins an elite group of young men who achieve this honor; in fact, only 6% of the total number of eligible scouts last year.  Emmanuel built a fence at Homestretch's Roswell community for his Eagle Scout project.  HomeStretch gives homeless parents and their children a safe and comfortable place to live while simultaneously helping them address the root causes of their situation and return to a life of self-reliance and stability.

Flynn Receives Award for Excellence

Last night CHS senior Bailey Flynn received a Yes I Can! award in the area of vocational skills for his excellent work at his off-campus jobsite. Bailey is pictured above with his parents. Below is a blurb from his nomination:

“Bailey has been working at the Fulton County Administrative Building for his jobsite this year. He had extreme anxiety about working off campus and meeting new people, but he was able to overcome that and excel. He has exceeded all expectations! He is excited to go to jobsite every day, has become much more social with his supervisors, has almost memorized all of the schools on every mail route for the county, and looks forward to delivering mail to employees throughout the building. Bailey has made tremendous progress, and his self-confidence has come a long way!” 

Congratulations, Bailey!
