š¦ Morgan County FFA Officers are making the most of their summer! š¦
Last week, MCHS FFA officers participated in their annual Officer Leadership Retreat at the Georgia Safari Conservation Park right here in Madison.
During the retreat, these student leaders planned for the upcoming school year, developed chapter goals, selected meeting themes, and strengthened their leadership skills through team-building activities.
From staying in safari tents to interacting with incredible animals, this once-in-a-lifetime experience provided the perfect backdrop for learning, collaboration, and growth.
Thank you to the Georgia Safari Conservation Park for hosting our FFA officers and providing such an incredible environment where leadership, teamwork, and learning came to life.

Class of 2026 Seniors and Families,
We have been closely monitoring the weather for graduation. Due to the anticipated forecast, graduation will be held as follows:
Morgan County High School Graduation
May 22, 2026
8:00 p.m.
Morgan County High School Competition Gym
Doors will open at 6:30 p.m.
We have worked to maximize attendance capacity by providing each senior family with seven tickets. These limits are necessary in order to remain in compliance with fire code regulations and occupancy requirements.
Please note that all individuals entering the gym will be required to present a graduation ticket for admission, including small children. Unfortunately, employee badges cannot be accepted in place of a ticket for entry. We also ask that guests refrain from bringing large items such as balloons or similar objects that may interfere with the view of other attendees.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to provide a safe and positive experience for our graduates and their families. We look forward to celebrating the Class of 2026 and all they have accomplished.
