What began as a dream more than a decade ago became a reality today as Monroe County Schools celebrated the grand opening and ribbon cutting of the new Mary Persons High School Fieldhouse and Stadium Plaza.
This state-of-the-art facility provides our student-athletes and coaches with the resources they need to prepare, compete, and succeed. Community members, coaches, and players had the opportunity to tour the impressive three-story building and experience firsthand everything it has to offer—from a modern weight room and recovery areas to meeting spaces, film rooms, and a stadium viewing area overlooking Dan Pitts Stadium.
Made possible through ESPLOST funding, this project reflects our community’s continued investment in the future of Monroe County students. We extend our sincere gratitude to the voters of Monroe County for supporting this vision and to Parrish Construction for delivering a first-class facility that will serve generations of Bulldogs to come.
The future is bright for Mary Persons Athletics, and today marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
