Seniors.... Time to Celebrate!

It’s college acceptance time, the time where students wait anxiously to see if they were accepted to the college they want to attend.

We here at Social Circle are so proud of all of our students, and want to celebrate when you meet a milestone accomplishment like this!

If you have commissioned in the military, that is a celebration too.  


We have 38 college acceptances so far, and we are so proud of those students.  If you have been accepted to a college or university or have signed with the military, please let Mrs. Kitchens know; we want to brag about all of you!
