Civic Club sponsors GCHS Academic Banquet
The GCHS Academic Awards Banquet was held May 7 at the Hartford Baptist Fellowship Hall. The event is sponsored each year by the Hartford Civic Club and the GCHS FCCLA (headed by Janie Fondren).
Janet Henderson, president of the Hartford Civic Club, welcomed the group and introduced the speaker, Linda Simpkins Boykins.
Mrs. Boykins is a 20-year educator and a 1982 graduate of GCHS. Her message encouraged the students to be “determined, destined and have an attitude of gratitude.” She told them to not throw in the towel when they get discouraged, but to take the towel and wipe the sweat and dirt off. Her final comments were to “keep your dream alive,” and she talked about the parents, grandparents and teachers who have their hands at their back to help keep them going and encouraging them.
The evening concluded with words from Principal Harold Birge who thanked the parents and students.
