Waycross High School was a high school in the city of Waycross, Georgia in the United States. In 1993, the Waycross School Board dissolved its charter and merged into the Ware County School System, creating one larger high school, Ware County Senior High. The school was located on Ava Street, at the present site of the Central Baptist Church. The Ava Street Waycross Senior High was started in 1936. It graduated its first class in 1939 and its last in 1966. At midterm of the 1966 school year, the new Waycross High School was completed and moved into during Christmas break. Thus 1967 was the first year at the new Waycross High School, which later became a middle school. In 1993 the Waycross School System was absorbed by the Ware County School system. Waycross graduated its last class in 1994. Waycross won the Georgia State AA football championship in 1960, 1961, and 1977. The Bulldogs won the AA State Championship in 1970 and the AAA State Championship in 1972. In 1981 they won the Georgia State Class AAA football title. Waycross High was also built into a track and field powerhouse under the leadership of Coach Chuck McKenny. The yearbook was named the "Turpicone" (turpentine-pine cone; Ware County was the largest producer of naval stores in the world). ==Alma Mater== On the east side of our city, etched against the sky Deep among the murm'ring pine trees, stands our Waycross High. While our voices join in praises of old Waycross High; Youthful memories linger ever as the years go by. Though we wander, Alma Mater, Far from home and thee, We will always sing thy glory, Love and victory. Refrain: Hail, all hail! our Alma Mater! We will honor thee; Hail to thee, our Alma Mater; Loyal we will be. 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「Waycross High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
