We love when our students give back! Just before graduating from Midtown High School, a few seniors visited David T. Howard Middle School for a powerful “big sis/little sis” mentorship conversation. Students engaged in conversations about honors coursework at Midtown and shared their experiences with 8th-grade girls about academics, leadership, balance, and future college pathways! The discussion was full of honesty, encouragement, and connection, with students offering real insight and inspiration. What A meaningful full-circle moment for many of our seniors and a strong step toward building lasting mentorship between schools! #GirlsLead #StudentLeadership #APSExcellence #AtlantaPublicSchools
