Union Grove High School Yearbook Earns Top Rankings

 

HENRY COUNTY, GA – The new year has brought new awards and recognitions for Union Grove High School and its yearbook program.

 

The school’s yearbook program was also the recipient of great news to start the year as the Union Grove yearbook was named the #1 yearbook in the U.S. by Lifetouch in their national yearbook showcase contest for the second time.   The ‘Wolverscenes’ staff received a banner and certificate for display at the school, as well as a cash prize.

 

Tammy Legg, teacher/advisor at Union Grove High School was thrilled for her students and shared her excitement that their hard work and dedication have been recognized.  Fifteen students make up the year book staff which consists of sophomores, juniors, and seniors.

 

The latest award for the yearbook group is not their first accolade.  In fact, the group has received over 26 awards for their work over the past five years. 

Atlanta Magazine recently published its public high school guide ranking the top 20 public high schools, and Union Grove High School was ranked 7th among the 20 schools receiving the recognition.  
 

“This is an acknowledgement that our community, parents, students, and staff can all be proud of, because all these components contributed to the data used to develop this list,” said Tom Smith, Principal of Union Grove High School. Personally, I couldn’t be more proud to be a Union Grove Wolverine.”

 

Smith credits the community within the Union Grove cluster of schools for doing a great job of preparing their students for the rigors of high school.

 

“This started eleven years ago.  The founding staff set high expectations and our community, parents, students, and staff have continued to rise to and exceed those expectations.”
