Six Georgia schools, including Chickamauga Elementary, Tunnel Hill Elementary and two Dalton elementaries, were among the highest-performing schools in the state on test exams.
And 10 schools in the Northwest Georgia region were recognized for their improvements in performance and progress.
Principals credit parental support, dedicated teachers and, in Dalton, their efforts to improve every student’s reading and writing skills.
“I’m so excited for our school,” said Tunnel Hill Principal Connie Kopcsak, who is new to the school this year. “There’s a lot of pride in that community, and the teachers love the school.”
