GCA's 4-Way Test Winners

The Bainbridge Rotary Club host the 4-Way test project each year with all Decatur County fourth-graders. This project was started several years ago as an opportunity to expose our children to the high, honorable and ethical principals evidenced in the Rotary 4-Way test.
Adopted by Rotary in 1943, the 4-Way test is:
1. Is it the Truth
2. Is it fair to all concerned?
3. Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
4. Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
To participate in the contest, students are asked to write no more than one page on how one or all of the principals could be utilized in their own lives. The GCA winners are first place, Ben Thompson; second place, Parker Goodson; and third place, Jeb Smith.
