Thank you LC School System! We are thankful to be a small part of the great things happening in Dahlonega and Lumpkin County.
It is truly an honor to recognize the Dahlonega Sunrise Rotary as our Featured Partner in Education for March 2026.
We chose to celebrate Dahlonega Sunrise Rotary for three very important reasons.
First, their commitment to celebrating student character and service is remarkable. Each month, they recognize one student from Lumpkin County Middle School and one from Lumpkin County High School as the Service Above Self Student of the Month. These students, along with their parents, are invited to a Rotary meeting where they are honored with a certificate and a monetary award. By doing this, Rotary is not only recognizing achievement, but reinforcing the values of leadership, service, and integrity in our young people.
Second, their investment in our district-wide R3 Day this fall demonstrated their deep commitment to student success. Through a generous $10,000 donation, they helped make possible a day focused on reading for our 2nd graders, resilience for our 8th graders, and real-world readiness for our 12th graders. With over 100 volunteers supporting the day — many of whom were Rotarians — their impact was both financial and hands-on. They didn’t just fund the work; they showed up for our students.
And finally, Dahlonega Sunrise Rotary continues to change lives through the thousands of dollars in scholarships they award to graduating seniors each year. Their investment in our students extends beyond high school and into their futures.
For their unwavering support, their generosity, and their belief in the potential of every student in Lumpkin County, we are proud to recognize Dahlonega Sunrise Rotary as our Featured Partner in Education for March 2026.
