Woodland HS Front Office Receptionist Passes Away

CARTERSVILLE, GA — The Woodland High School community is mourning the loss of one of its well-known staff members.

Judy Robinson, the front office receptionist at the school, unexpectedly died Wednesday evening, the school and the district have confirmed on their Facebook pages.

"Judy was a true-blue (and cardinal red) Wildcat parent and employee," Woodland High School added on its Facebook page. "She loved this school, her co-workers, and the students very much, and she was very loved in return.

Principal Wes Dickey said Robinson was in her eighth year as the school's main office receptionist. During her tenure, she served the Wildcat family with "excellence," he added.

"Her smile was contagious when she greeted our guests, and she was a true Wildcat through and through," Dickey said. "She always showed enthusiasm in difficult situations whether at school or when she personally won her battle with cancer many years ago. She took true joy in the recognition of our students, was a parent of a WHS alum, and was a committed and dedicated supporter of our Fine Arts programs. Please keep the Robinson and Wildcat families in your thoughts and prayers as their hearts heal from this unexpected loss."
