Applause: “I was so happy to see the Speech-Language Pathology department’s picture on the front page. They embody what a ‘Grade A’ represents. They are amazing and changed my son’s life! Good job Colquitt Regional!
Thannks
“Thanks to those who brought us the Spring Fling. It was an enjoyable Saturday. The weather was great and my family had a wonderful time.
Social media
“ In this day of smart phones, Facebook, texting and tweeting can text messages be traced for evidence if ever needed? Be careful of the non-professional texting back and forth that you think is innocent, cute and funny. It might come back and cause serious problems, It’s funny how people don’t think smart until something dumb happens.
Behavior
“To the Packer mom who stood up in the bleachers and spoke your opinion, feel free to come talk to me in person. I have a daughter out there to and unless you hear a nasty word come out of my mouth, keep your mouth shut. Go Devils!
Good job
“ Thank you to the middle school girls and boys soccer teams and their coaches for hosting the end of season tournament last Friday and Saturday. They represented Colquitt County in a way that makes soccer fans proud.
Our schools
“You know, if we only had three or four elementary schools instead of 11 very different ones, we wouldn’t have all this moving around, jealousy, infighting and inequities! All of our Colquitt County students should have the same opportunities and you know they don’t in our current setup! We need fairness in our county!
Field trips
“I think school field trips should be in Georgia. Let’s keep our money here instead of sending it to Hawaii, Florida, Washington or New York. Shop local – stay local!
Road safety
“Some motorists on West Bypass are notorious for passing on a double yellow line. I witnessed what came just short of a head-on collision this past weekend.
