Smith makes donation, challenges parents Fayette County Board of Education Chairman Terri Smith has issued a challenge to all parents of the new Whitewater High School. She recently donated $1,000 to help start the school's Parent/Teacher Organization (PTO) in an effort to encourage other parents to do the same. "I want to challenge parents to get involved with the organization and make a donation in whatever amount is comfortable for them so that the PTO can get up and running," she said. Whitewater High will open next year for ninth-graders at the LaFayette Educational Center and then move the following year to its permanent building, which is being constructed on Ga. Highway 85 South next to Sara Harp Minter Elementary. Anyone wishing to make a donation to the PTO can do so by calling the school at 770-460-3990, ext. 232. What do you think of this story?
