exemplify at ECCHS,” stated Mrs. Renee Padgett, Elbert County Comprehensive

both involve that.

I will pursue an
Engineering degree

that will better suit
my strengths and
skills. I am not sure
what career I will
pursue after graduation. UGA has
many opportunities for internships in
the College of Engineering that will
hopefully lead me into a career.

What awards/honors have you
received throughout high school? I
have been in the Top

grade year, and have
received three levels
of the Scholastic E
award. In addition,
I was recognized as
the winner of the
Sons of the American
Revolution
Essay
Scholarship for the
local district and also
the state of Georgia.
Where do you plan
to attend school
in the fall? What
do you hope to do with your major
after graduating college? I will be
attending Pensacola Christian College
(PCC), located in Pensacola, FL. By
the time I graduate college, I will have
completed two degrees. One will be
in Missions, and the other will be in
Computer & Software Engineering.
The Lord has been working in my heart
for a very long time about attending
Bible College; however, I initially
ignored it. But, I finally gave in because
I know that I cannot be content unless
I am in God’s will! Therefore, I will
be majoring in Missions. I will also
be majoring in Computer & Software
engineering so that the Lord may
use me in different capacities on the
mission field. Lord willing, I will go on
deputation as soon as I graduate from
Bible College and win lost souls for the
Lord in Lima, Peru (where my family
is originally from).
Best wishes to our top three graduates
as they take on the future!
Congratulations
Graduates!

Class of 2015 Senior Blitz
We asked the Class of 2015 for their
opinions. Here is what they said!
Who was your favorite teacher of
your high school experience, and
what made them your favorite?
Deldrin Moon: Coach Palmer; It
seemed like we were equally crazy.
cause she never gave up on me even
when I wanted to. She always believed
in me.
Andy Turner: Coach Thompson; He
always encouraged and made us give
our best.
Coral Okey: Mrs. Oakley because
she’s funny and easy to talk to.
Chelsee Walton: Mrs. Poss was my
favorite teacher because she helped me
with the hardest course (math) that I
ever had to take.
Javerez Smith: Mrs. Poss because
she went out of the way to help me
pass her class.
Kayla Teasley: Mr. Kidd for using
football plays to explain the law of
thermodynamics.
Parker Carnes: Mr. Freeman because
he always knows how to be funny.
Marlena Rhodes: Beshiri because
he’s pretty cool.
Indiayah Bone: Mrs. White because
she was funny and was a relaxed
teacher.
Katie Fowler: MSG Homer; He has
been my favorite for all four years. He
is the only teacher I felt that I could
always go to about anything. He has
always believed in me and has been,
literally, my best friend!
Johna Busby: Michael Bilow; He
took many, many hours out of his off
time to take FFA to shows/conventions/competitions.
Yessenia Estrada: Mr. Bennett because he has always been there for me
no matter what.
Ddajah Smith: Mrs. Thompson; She
was an easy going teacher and she had
a good heart.
Aliyah Brown: If I had to choose I
would say Dr. Rivers because of her
jokes.
Garrett Dutton: Mrs. Roberts; She
taught me the only thing I was interested in; medicine.
Which course out of all four years,
benefitted you the most or was your
favorite? Why?
Brandon Dixon: Granite because you
will actually use the skills that you
learned in there, and we always had fun
in the class.
Janie Flippen: Mrs. Driver because
she always went out of her way to help
me in any way she could. I’m super
thankful for her. Whenever I would
slip on my grades, she would always
notify me and give me ways to fix it.
Kaycie Oakley: My favorite was Human Anatomy with Mrs. Smith because
her stories were interesting.
Aarion Allen: Mrs. Keblish because
she took me in as her own, always
checked on me, and put up with me
when no one else would.
Matthew Slay: Band because I’m going to college to major in music and I
got a full ride through the music program.
Keonna Allen: Mrs. Smith because of
all the stories she told.
Parker Carnes: Welding because I
plan on having it as a job one day.
Kavauna Allen:
Moesha Fortson: I would have to say
Mrs. Johnson be-
Jarmel Mcclary: Broadcast and video
was my favorite because it taught me a
lot of new stuff.
the cooking class because before that I
could not cook at all.
Bethany Carter: Video Broadcast
with Beshiri. It helped me get a job at
Elberton.net.
McKenzi Harper: Computer Apps
classes benefitted me most because I
can use those programs in everyday
life.
Daiqua Jackson: Accounting because
I learned how to manage money.
Cody Williams: Granite tech because
it has opened jobs for me.
Tabitha Hunt: JROTC was my favorite because it’s always changing; We’re
always doing different activities, and it
has made me a better citizen and stronger leader.
Briana Bowen: Intro to Healthcare
because it has helped prepare me for
my future career in psychology.
Tyaira Allen: Math is my fave. But
completing the Early Childhood Education Pathway benefitted me the most
because I get to leave school early to
work at the elementary school.
Aliyah Brown: Computer app. Classes because computer skills can take
you far in life.
Ken Allen: Chemistry because it took
out what I wasn’t going to try to pursue
in college, and helped me find a career
path for me.
Alexius Jenkins:
My favorite
course(s) were granite and broadcasting. I got to do something I never had
done.
Kavauna Allen: I think all of them
because I learned something new and
got something out of it.
Chelsee Walton: Business Communications and Presentations because I’m
majoring in Business and this course
has helped me a lot.
Alyssa Greenway: Math with Mr.
Bohlen benefitted me the most. He is
the best teacher ever.
Shakyra Huff: AP Stats because the
class was really small and the tests
Kaylynn Maxey:
Digital Design
classes (Mr. Mccarty). I’m able to do
much more now, and discovered that
it’s kinda fun to do. Going to college
in that field.
What advice would you leave behind
for next year’s incoming freshmen?
Brandon Dixon: Do good and keep
your grades up.
Kaycie Oakley: Enjoy your time;
Four years goes by quick.
Javerez Smith: Don’t play around in
the class- Get it done now, and play
later.
Jordan Radford: Don’t get behind on
work/grades.
Matthew Slay: Take advantage of all
the opportunities you have.
Parker Carnes: To study hard and not
fall behind in classes because it’s hard
to finish them when you’re behind.
Daiqua Jackson: Get a parking spot
close to the high school; It’s not fun
running to your car in the rain.
Melisa Dubose: Please, please, please
don’t try to rush your way through.
Take your time and really enjoy high
school. Stay focused and don’t get side
tracked.
