                   CONGRATULATING CALHOUN HIGH SCHOOL

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. PHIL GINGREY

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, March 3, 2010

  Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I am honored to represent 
Calhoun High School and want to congratulate the students, faculty, and 
staff on their achievements thus far this year.
  Principal Wanda Westmoreland, a 17-year Calhoun veteran, has told me 
that Calhoun's victories in the athletic arena are a direct result of 
academic achievements in the classroom. Principal Westmoreland leads by 
example and will be greatly missed when she retires at the end of this 
school term. Her leadership is one of the reasons Calhoun was listed as 
one of America's top schools by the U.S. News and World report. 
Additionally, Calhoun's One Act Plays were the regional champions this 
year and placed third overall in the state of Georgia.
  On the athletic side, I'd like to recognize the following Yellow 
Jacket teams for their achievements this year: Varsity Football, 
runner-up in the State Championships and nine time Regional Champions; 
Competition Cheerleading, the three time State Champions; and, Calhoun 
wrestler--Hunter Knight--who won a state championship this year.
  Congratulations to Calhoun High School for their accomplishments on 
and off the field this year. Keep up the great work and go Jackets!
