Nearly 30 students in the Hall County School System are the district's first recipients of Georgia's Fine Arts Diploma Seal.
The Fine Arts Diploma Seal is awarded to graduating high school students who complete a Georgia Fine Arts Pathway and engage in additional fine arts or creative industry focus courses; fine arts-related extracurricular activities and community service; and the presentation of a Fine Arts Capstone Project.
This is the first year the school system has been eligible to offer the Fine Arts Diploma Seal.
