State School Superintendent Richard Woods comes to Athens today: he will visit Cleveland Road Elementary School in Bogart, handing out pocket-sized copies of the US Constitution and honoring the school and its students and teacher for recent achievements in reading.

Woods will also visit High Shoals Elementary School in Oconee County.

There is an evening meeting of the Oconee County School Board, a 6 o’clock session at School District offices on School Street in Watkinsville.
