At their College Signing Day open house at @ResurgenceHall, students celebrated the colleges their homerooms are named after—a fun tradition that puts higher ed on their radar early. Thank you to Reps. @DonzellaJJames and @state_rep_kim and Sen. @RaShaunKemp for joining the fun!

What a summer! Three GCSA staffers have now officially been notified that their children made it OFF waitlists and into some great charter schools! Congrats to @DrewCharter , @AmanaWest , and @ResurgenceHall for gaining some wonderful new students this fall! (And never let it be said that charter schools pick their students. Our staff waited on pins and needles just like everyone else. We need more charter school seats and fewer kids on charter school waitlists!!) @GACharters
