Many years ago Baccalaureate was a regular part of High School graduation. It was held at the school, and a local preacher was invited to give the message. No longer is that the case. For several years First Baptist Church has hosted a Baccalaureate and invited the graduating seniors to attend. This year local churches co-sponsored the program that was held at First Baptist Church. Speakers included Ken Hunter, Sherrie Leach, Rod Gulley, and Coach Curtis Barbay. Singers were Hannah Meek and Jennifer Stark.
