A Group inspired by the Adopt a High School Senior movement across the country. During these hard times, we need to find a positive outlet. Let's not lose sight of the young adults that have had so much taken from them due to COVID-19. Come together to make our High School Seniors feel important. We can become their extended family. Post your Seniors so that we can help give the Class of 2021 a big boost! Members of this Group: pick a Senior, pick two, pick three, reach out to them in any way possible to celebrate with them in their accomplishments. Send a letter, cards, food, a cake, gift basket, whatever you are inspired to do. Let's celebrate them the only way can can right now. All Chatham County School Seniors are encouraged to participate!
