Ashworth Middle School has an inspiring bulletin board on display that encourages students to get involved, make a difference, and be extraordinary. It is a great reminder that every student has unique talents and interests that can make a positive impact in their school and community.

We encourage all students to discover what they are passionate about and explore new opportunities to get involved. Hobbies can grow into careers, and Gordon County Schools offers a wide range of clubs, athletics, and career pathways to help students find their path.
