WOODSTOCK-TOWNE LAKE, GA - From Cherokee County School District: Thirteen Cherokee County School District students earned first-place awards at the Northwest Georgia Regional Science and Engineering Fair and advanced to State, where two won blue ribbons!

Creekland MS seventh-grader Danielle Satterfield at the 70th Georgia Science and Engineering Fair earlier this month in Athens earned first-place in the Physics & Astronomy category and was named a Broadcam Masters Nominee. Woodstock HS junior Chris Nikolov’s project in the Plant Sciences category won first-place honors at the State Fair.

They will be recognized by the Cherokee County School Board and Superintendent of Schools at the School Board’s May 3 meeting along with their fellow first-place Regional winners, several of whom also went on to place at State.
