The Washington County Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce the STAR Students and STAR Teachers for 2021. Help us give the recipients a warm congratulations on this honor!
 
The Chamber has recognized many STARS over the years, and we are proud to add McKinley and Mary Preston to this prestigious lineup.

We are also proud that Mary Preston Alexander is representing Washington County as the county-wide winner and will be recognized at the region level.
 
The PAGE Student Teacher Achievement Recognition (STAR) program is sponsored, administered and promoted by the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE) and the PAGE Foundation. Since its creation, the STAR program has honored nearly 28,000 students and the teachers they have selected as the most influential to their academic achievement. High school seniors must have the highest score on a single test date on the SAT and be in the top 10 percent or top 10 students of their class based on grade point average to qualify for STAR nomination.

Georgia SMART Plan


Small businesses, like yours, need an easier, more affordable way to offer healthcare to your employees. An Anthem SMART plan can help you do both.

The Chamber has teamed up with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Anthem) to administer the Georgia Chamber SMART Plan (SMART). This plan allows smaller employers to join together to share in the overall claims risk. By being part of a larger, self-funded pool, employers have financial protection backed by Anthem.
