The club sponsors an annual luncheon for all new teachers in the Griffin-Spalding County School System. The new teachers have the opportunity to meet Rotarians and enjoy lunch during their orientation week. This welcome provides a great first impression of our school system and community. This year, we welcomed over 100 new teachers.
Quimby Melton III, a recently retired principal in the school system, challenged the new teachers: "You have a chance to make a difference in the lives of children and the life of this community."
Griffin Rotary hosted over 100 new teachers at their lunch meeting on July 24, 2014.
