Gordon County Schools Senior Class of 2022: Due to the inclement weather forecast throughout the week, the graduation ceremonies for both Sonoraville High School and Gordon Central High School are being changed and relocated with new dates or times. These changes are to ensure that as many family members and friends can actively participate in the ceremonies instead of having limited seating and online-only options. The Class of 2022 for GCHS and SHS will celebrate their graduation ceremonies at the Dalton Convention Center on Wednesday, May 25th. Sonoraville High School will have its ceremony at 4:30 p.m. and Gordon Central will have its ceremony at 8:00 p.m. Sonoraville High School graduates will transition out of the Dalton Convention Center shortly after their ceremony ends, and Gordon Central High School graduates and families should arrive promptly at 7:00 p.m. Bus transportation will be offered and provided for both high schools in the event of families being unable to drive to the Dalton Convention Center. The Dalton Convention Center is located at 2211 Tony Ingle Parkway, Dalton, GA. More information will come out tomorrow after all details have been discussed and finalized. We appreciate our community’s understanding as Gordon County Schools continues to support and seek ways to ensure a larger audience has access to each child’s graduation ceremony.

Sonoraville High School is gearing up for summer break. While summer presents an opportunity to relax and enjoy the sunshine, we want our students to continue to find ways to learn while away from the classroom. We have an exciting reading service available through Sora, the student reading app, which provides free 24/7 access to ebooks and audiobooks. Learn more about Sora and its perks for you and our students here: https://meet.soraapp.com/. What better way to engage a student’s mind than through reading? Starting May 4 - August 17, 2022, the Sora Sweet Reads program will offer a collection of Juvenile and Young Adult titles that will be prominently displayed in Sora for quick and easy unlimited access. You can explore the title offerings and learn more about the program here: https://resources.overdrive.com/sora-sweet-reads/.
