Dawson County High School hosted its awards day ceremony last week and students in ninth through 12th grades received recognition in individual subject areas, Tiger Awards, essay contest winners and the Georgia Certificate of Merit. "We thank you for coming out today to help us recognize the accomplishments of a fine group of students," said Principal Richard Crumley before turning the ceremony over to the school counselors and graduation coach who handed out the awards. The first awards given were to students who earned the Tiger Award.
