Gainesville High School is looking to change how and when it picks its valedictorian and salutatorian, a system that was challenged last school year in what was a bitter and divisive fight. “We want to continue to look at (procedures) and talk to college professors and let them go through before we make it a final plan,” GHS Principal LaCrisia Larkin told the Gainesville City Board of Education during a Monday night work session. Added lead counselor Tracey Wilson: “We are making sure we have our ‘I’s dotted and ‘T’s crossed before we roll this out.”
