Student Receives Norah McGraw Award

The late Norah McGraw was a beloved special education teacher in the Coweta County School System. She was a strong advocate for Special Olympics and the children we serve. She died of cancer several years ago. In memory of her, her family set up an award to be given to a Special needs student. Holli was nominated by her teacher for her Achievement in academics, good attendance, great attitude, overall willingness to do her best and her good sportsmanship. Norah McGraw's brother, Jim McGraw, presented Holli with the award.
