Thanks to UNG and our district’s participation in the WORC Grant, Dr. Alhadeff and a group of his Healthcare Science students attended today’s REED Summit. Our students left the Summit with a clear picture of all the healthcare career opportunities in north Georgia!
Thank you to these hardworking, dedicated members of the #TR1BE for their many years of continued service to the boys and girls of Lumpkin County! You are appreciated!
It's been a full week since our visit from Fox 5 Atlanta to celebrate our LC Indians as the Team of the Week, but we are still celebrating our many successes! Check out these comments from Freddie the Falcon after his time at LCHS. Keep it up, #TR1BE!

Georgia Association of Educational Leaders (GAEL) Executive Director Robert "Buddy" Costley attended the LC BOE meeting last night to present Superintendent Dr. Rob Brown with the 2022 Jim Puckett Outstanding Educator Award. Dr. Brown was the recipient of this award in recognition of his selfless leadership to not only the Dahlonega/Lumpkin County community but to all of public education in the entire state of Georgia. Mr. Costley shared with our BOE and meeting attendees that Dr. Brown was selected for this award in part due to his leadership as the immediate past Georgia School Superintendents Association (GSSA) President and specifically for his ongoing mentorship and service to new school superintendents in our state.
Congratulations, Dr. Brown! You continue to represent Lumpkin County Schools well as our fearless leader, and we appreciate all you do for your school system and for this state!
Additionally, BOE Chairman Bobby Self presented Superintendent Brown with an Ideal Indian Award as a token of the board’s appreciation for his leadership.
Just a quick reminder that today (Tuesday, 9/13) is an early-release day. Students will be released at 11:30 AM, so please plan accordingly. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher or the main number of your child's school.
