Sports
The Georgia High School Association (GHSA) and Georgia Electric Membership Corporation (GEMC) salute the GHSA-member high schools that will receive the 2009 GEMC Cooperative Spirit Sportsmanship Award honoring exemplary sportsmanship demonstrated during the 2008-09 school year. "Awards that are given for the demonstration of good sportsmanship at high school athletic events are some of the most prestigious awards that a GHSA school can receive," said Dr. Ralph Swearngin, GHSA Executive Director. "This is a distinction that recognizes the outstanding behavior of students, choaches, administrators, and fans. Congratulations, to the recipients!"
Being recognized for Region 4AAAAA is Newnan High School--home of the Cougars!
Lady Cougars Off to a Good Start
Roses and Thorns
Roses and Thorns is the section where students speak out about what they like and do not like, in essence, an opinion poll. Roses are given to the good things, and thorns are tendered to the not-so-good things.
Spotlight
"Spotlight" features teachers and students who stand out in various areas, from sports and academics to talents and activities outside of school. Our section incorporates students' ideas along with ideas of staff members on the Cougar Chronicles. Therefore, our section will vary from week to week as more students and faculty contribute.
Stand Out Student
"Stand Out Student" does not necessarily spotlight the best athlete or the student at the top of the class, but the student who excels in anything he or she does. Teachers and fellow students make recommendations for this section! The editors of "Spotlight" personally interview each recommendation and select students to be featured each week!
Teacher Feature
"Teacher Feature" highlights new teachers and outstanding teachers at NHS. It gives a chance for those new to school to introduce themselves and tell a little about their lives. It also recognizes teachers who do a lot for their students.
