THE AMAZING PROJECT has been in the planning for several years. A courtyard in a space that had been dubbed a sort of wasteland or even "the prison yard," was taken over, with approval by the Shelby County Schools and White Station High School, by a team of foresighted graduates, designers, artists, and builders, to invest big bucks to beautify the space and make it useful to the school and the community. Done! These photos will show what coming together and working together can accomplish! Hats off and a big round of applause to all who were involved in this amazing effort which ended with the ribbon-cutting on a chilly, misty November 1, 2018. There are at least two more phases yet to come, which involve upgrades and a STEM program for the school. The courtyard is appropriately dedicated to the long-time principal, Rush W. Siler, and to the long-time baseball coach and teacher, George Holt. Look closely at the pictures and see if you can find someone who looks remarkably like Mr. Siler! Hint: Pictures 3, 5, and 8.

 

Here are some photos from the ribbon-cutting ceremony. ONWARD SPARTANS!
