Today’s Rotary meeting looked a little different as we took a field trip to the new Waycross Middle School!

We had the opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes tour of this incredible new facility led by fellow Rotarian and Principal David Hitt. It was exciting to get a sneak peek of the building before students and teachers fill the halls and a new chapter begins for our community.

It was inspiring to see the investment being made in the future of our students, educators, and the next generation of leaders. Seeing this space come to life is a reminder of what we can accomplish when our community comes together to build a brighter future.

Thank you, Principal Hitt, for sharing your time and giving us a glimpse into this exciting new chapter for Waycross Middle School!
