His experience both on and off the field makes him a tremendous addition to CHS! Coach Atha shared his excitement about joining the Bulldogs: 💬 “I am tremendously excited to be the next head football coach at Cedartown High School. There are very few programs and communities with such a rich tradition in the state of Georgia. To be the head coach of the Cedartown Bulldogs is an extreme honor, and I can’t wait to get started. Go Dawgs!” 🐾 Coach Atha and his wife, Cathe, have four children: Maggie Beth, Anna Claire, Tommy, and Katherine. Join us in welcoming Coach Atha to the Bulldog family!
