Walk through a school building during December and you’re bound to feel the spirit of Christmas. Young students eagerly anticipate Santa’s arrival while older students and teachers eagerly eye Christmas break.
Students and faculty at Tallulah Falls School channeled their excitement and enthusiasm for the holidays into impressive, fun art displays. The school held a door decorating contest. Winners were announced during a recent virtual assembly and prizes were presented by the General Federation of Women’s Clubs-Georgia TFS State Co-Chair Martha Lee Sherman.
First place in the door decorating contest went to Hannah Satterfield’s class, second-place honors went to Jane Shoemaker’s class and third-place went to Nancy Almoyan’s class. There were two honorable mentions – Heather Henriques and Kim McClurg.
Members of the Stone Mountain Woman’s Club visited TFS recently to judge the door decor.
The judges for the Christmas Door Decorating Contest are from Stone Mountain Woman’s Club: Barbara Luton, Nelda Lunsford, and Shari Carter.
The award money for the door decoration contest was donated by GFWC Gainesville Phoenix Woman’s Club and GFWC Stone Mountain Woman’s Club.
