Good afternoon Gordon Central seniors, parents, and guardians. This is Mr. Hall with some exciting news about the 2022 GCHS Senior Prom! We are proud to announce our partnership this year with the Harris Arts Center Executive Director, Miranda Bentley, and her board of directors in allowing us to host prom in their community facility on Saturday, April 23rd, from 7 to 11 p.m.
With the decrease of COVID-19 cases at Gordon Central and in Gordon County, the GC administration and prom committee felt we owed it to our students to find a special venue for our prom this year. We also needed to select a date that did not impact our seniors and their athletic, scholastic, and performance events during April and May. Two years ago we were unable to have prom, and last year our committee, led by Shannon Rainwater and Sherry Sullivan, hosted a fabulous event outside our gymnasium. This year, we are ready to return to normal, but we had to wait and ensure we were supporting the health and safety of our students when making this decision.
Mrs. Bentley and the Harris Arts Center were gracious to help us with a date and venue. Their flexibility and desire to commit their facilities to our Calhoun and Gordon County families is a testament to the HAC's mission of providing and giving back to this community. I am beyond excited about our partnership and collaboration to support our students in creating memories.
I cannot wait for our seniors to participate in this year's prom on April 23rd. Thank you families for your patience, support, and understanding. Go Warriors!
