  Whereas, the South Carolina General Assembly notes with pleasure that Ware Shoals High School of Greenwood School District 51 is commemorating a century of tradition, pride, and community at the celebration of its one hundredth anniversary in 2026;
and   Whereas, established in 1926, Ware Shoals High was housed in a dedicated high school building constructed to serve the growing student population.
This structure remains in use today as the core of the school's facilities.
The 1926 formal establishment of the high school reflected the town's industrial development and commitment to education amid the textile boom in the region.
Over the decades, the school has evolved within its district, emphasizing community ties and local history;
and   Whereas, in celebration of the school's one hundredth anniversary, various special events will be held from September 30 through October 3, 2026, among them a centennial rededication ceremony, silent auction, pregame tailgate gathering, home football game, pancake breakfast, alumni golf match, school open house, and decade reunions, as well as an all-class reunion featuring a live concert, fireworks, and family activities;
and   Whereas, this highly anticipated celebration will be filled with opportunities to reconnect with classmates, relive cherished memories while creating new ones, and honor the strong legacy and bright future of Ware Shoals High School;
and   Whereas, grateful for the contributions of Ware Shoals High School toward the education of South Carolina's most precious resource, its youth, the General Assembly is pleased to congratulate the Ware Shoals Hornets on reaching this golden milestone.
The members also look to see continually fulfilled in Ware Shoal's fine students the confident affirmation contained in their district motto, "Learning, Serving, Leading." Go, Hornets! Now, therefore,   Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
  That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, congratulate Ware Shoals High School of Greenwood School District 51 upon the occasion of its one hundredth anniversary;
commend the school on its many achievements over the past century;
