According to the Calhoun Police Department:
After an extensive investigation, the Special Operations Division of the Calhoun Police Department executed a search warrant on a vehicle located in the parking lot of the Calhoun High School.
The vehicle belonged to a juvenile student who allegedly was selling anabolic steroids to other juveniles at the school. During the execution of the search warrant numerous vials and pills of suspected anabolic steroids were located and seized.
Also seized were anabolic steroid paraphernalia.
Because the suspect is a juvenile the name has not been released. However, the suspect was taken into custody and later released to his parents.
“This is an ongoing investigation. The investigation has indicated students from several Northwest Georgia Schools may be involved in the use of these drugs,” said Sgt J. Marquez, Commander of the Special Operations Division. “We are working closely with other agencies on this case.”
Police officials refused requests from the Calhoun Times to list the exact charges filed against the suspect.
My suggestion: rather than find faults with someone try to see what makes them successful at something and do what they do and do it better.
One thing is sure. Education makes it easier to accept the success of others without juvenile jealousy.
Go Jackets!
Actually most of my early education was in the county school system but the years at Calhoun overrode those hellish years, sometimes I hit a wrong button and don't doublecheck when I see something so stupid I have to respond.
Ignorance is alive and well in Gordon County, and Georgia, the sad part is that the residents are so proud of it.
Try to spell school correctly next time! ;)
If you were a native of Gordon County perhaps you would understand how substandard the teachers are at GC shools, so until you have been here 30 years please don't jump into a debate you know nothing about
Since Calhoun is such a small town, most people continue to STAY in Calhoun once they are older. Meaning they NEVER GET OUT OF THE BUBBLE and that they must remain in that town because they do not want to compete or realize that people out there are better than them. They remain in that town/bubble so they can continue to feel better than others within the same dwelling place.
Education is not "rated" by how other schools perform. If you were actually educated people you would understand this and would not be comparing a county school to a city school. Education is based on individual students that are trying to better themselves intellectually. So you can continue to try and make yourselves feel better about a city school being better than a county school if you must but it is so sad that you narrow-minded people have to get satisfaction from bashing school systems.
SHS ROCKS is exactly right start acting like a responsible adult. Instead of like a kid that does'nt know any better than to be a disrespectful person.
