Cedartown High School (also known as the Cedartown Bulldogs or CHS) is the only high school in Cedartown, Georgia. As of the 2011-2012 school year, it had an enrollment of 1,081 students and 67 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student-teacher ratio of 16.13.〔 ==History== The school was founded in 1887. In 1903 the school created a football team with the mascot "The Cedartown Bulldogs." By the 1930s the school was rebuilt in a new location in order to serve the growing teenage population of the town. Vocational or "elective" classes were added in the 1930s and a school band in 1941. In 1970 the school was rebuilt in another location in the town. Cedartown High School enrolls around 1200 students per year. It still goes by the bulldog, symbolizing strength and endurance. The school colors are still red and black. "Toland's Bulldog Pride," Cedartown High School's mascot, died Monday, Jan. 2, 2012, following a brief illness. Pride was bought as a puppy from Mars Hill Bulldogs by the CHS Student Council and attended school each day. His affectionate and retiring personality made him a favorite member of the high school population as well as the community at large. A brief memorial service was held Wednesday, Jan. 4, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mike Hogg where Pride lived. Those attending were Hal David, Robyn Teems, Barry Williams, Clint Jones, Scott Hendrix and son, Landon, Cindy Brooks, Alyson Reaves,. Elisabeth and Chloe Powell,. Kriss York, Dana Johnson, Jeff Ford,. Scott McAnich, and Allie Hogg. Todd Tillery and CHS Skills USA also participated in the memorial. In 2012 The History Press released a book that was written by William Austin that contained a chronological history of the Cedartown football team. The popular publication also included highlights of the cross-town African American High School Cedar Hill Panthers, which won four state championships in ten years of competition.〔Author, William Austin〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cedartown High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
