“I have wanted to oversee the athletic program at CHS since I was a student in the high school,” Peppers said. Peppers grew up watching his father coach football, baseball, and softball at Chattooga. “I attended the first basketball game in the War Lodge in my mother’s womb, and I attended the last one with my children,” Peppers said.

Peppers bleeds red and black and is 100% committed to taking Chattooga to the next level. “I am looking forward to taking a program that is on the rise to higher levels. We have great quality people in coaching positions and that will translate into a successful program.”

“After finishing my third and final season as the boys’ and girls’ soccer coach, I told my players that we may not always see success on the scoreboard, but the lessons learned through sports will translate into character and wins beyond the scoreboard. We have an opportunity to help our students develop into tomorrow’s leaders,’ Peppers continued.

Peppers, a 1994 graduate of Chattooga, was a 4-year Varsity Letterman in Football, 3-year Varsity Letterman in Golf, and a Varsity Letterman in Baseball.

He is a 1999 Graduate of University of West Georgia where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Health and Physical Education. Peppers went on to to receive a Masters in Educational Leadership from Graduate of Albany State University in 2003. In 2008, he earned his University- Ed.
