Dodge Country High School Senior Quimyre Rolland has been selected to be a part of the 2015 Georgia Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council under the newly elected Georgia schools superintendent Richard Woods.
Every year, students statewide are encouraged to apply for a spot on the council. Students are selected based on their applications which ask questions regarding how to make the Georgia school system better and promoting involvement in their communities. The council is very selective and only sixty-four students were selected state-wide.
“I was nervous to submit an application,” said Rolland. “I truly feel honored, and I can’t stop smiling when I think of all the possibilities that will come from this position.”
Rolland will attend three different meetings in Atlanta with Woods and the rest of the council tentatively scheduled in February, March, and early May.
DCHS principal Dr. Susan Long has much to say on Rolland’s accomplishments.
“We are very proud of Quimyre to be selected to serve on the Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council,” said Long “Quimyre is already an outstanding leader and will be an outstanding representative for both Dodge County and Dodge County High School.”
