STORY 1: Cherokee Schools Announces New Principals and Administrators

The Cherokee County School District has announced key leadership changes for the upcoming school year. These include restructuring central office roles following a freeze on hiring by Superintendent Mary Elizabeth Davis. The changes aim to streamline operations and realign staffing, reducing central office positions through attrition and consolidation. New appointments include Joshua Heath as the first executive director for accountability, Mark Vance as principal of Creekview High School, and Kim Moody as principal of R.M. Moore Elementary School STEM Academy. Additionally, new roles such as director for leadership and operations and coordinator of student support have been created to enhance district operations and support functions.

STORY 2:New Cell Phone and Dress Code Rules Coming to Cherokee Schools 

The Cherokee County School District has approved significant updates to its dress code and cell phone policies, effective August 1. The revisions, endorsed unanimously by the Board of Education, aim to standardize dress code guidelines across all schools and regulate cell phone use more strictly. The new dress code prohibits attire depicting vulgarity, promotes consistency in clothing length, and mandates coverage of certain body areas. Students are allowed to carry cell phones but must keep them silenced and out of sight during school hours, with specific usage rules varying by grade level. Discipline for violations will escalate based on circumstances, emphasizing correctional measures and principal discretion. The changes reflect community input and aim to reduce student stress while enhancing academic focus. Full details can be accessed on the district’s website.

STORY 3:Canton Rotary Honors Fallen Bailiff 100 Years Later 

The Rotary Club of Canton and local law enforcement paid tribute to Cherokee County Bailiff Charles Fernando “Charlie” Loggins, who was killed in the line of duty in 1921. His name was added posthumously to the Public Safety Memorial at Canton Rotary Park, honoring his sacrifice during Georgia’s prohibition era while apprehending whiskey smugglers. The ceremony featured solemn remembrance, including the national anthem, color guard presentation, and remarks by community leaders. Cherokee County Sheriff Frank Reynolds presented Loggins’ descendants with honors and unveiled the memorial’s new addition, commemorating fallen public safety officers. The event also included scholarships for public safety personnel and a donation to support the family of the late Erin Mason, recognized for her service and tragically lost with her family in a recent accident.

STORY 4:Cherokee County Wants Your Input on Transportation Safety  

Cherokee County officials, along with city and public safety leaders, are collaborating on a transportation safety initiative called Safe Streets For All. This effort, supported by a $450,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation, aims to enhance road safety across Cherokee County, including Canton, Woodstock, Holly Springs, and Ball Ground. The project, managed by Pond and Company, involves gathering public input through a survey open until August. Residents are encouraged to identify safety concerns such as intersections, road conditions, and pedestrian safety. The initiative aligns with USDOT’s goal of eliminating roadway deaths through improved road designs, speed limits, and post-crash care strategies.

STORY 5:Highland Rivers Board Meets in Cartersville Wednesday 

Highland Rivers Behavioral Health's Governing Board of Directors will convene at 9:30 a.m. on June 26 at the Reaching Our Community Clubhouse in Cartersville. The meeting is open to the public, reflecting the organization's commitment to transparency. Highland Rivers serves a broad area in Northwest Georgia, encompassing over two dozen treatment facilities across 14 counties. They offer comprehensive services for mental health disorders, developmental disabilities, and addictive diseases, supporting more than 19,000 individuals annually. Accredited by CARF and designated as a Tier 1 safety net Core Provider by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, Highland Rivers plays a crucial role in the region's mental health care infrastructure.
