Our third-year students spent the day at the Atlanta Botanical Garden, a destination they selected themselves 🌿🌸 During their visit, they enjoyed a guided tour that offered a closer look at the gardens, followed by time to explore on their own and take in all the beauty around them.

From vibrant blooms to peaceful walking paths, the day was filled with curiosity, connection, and so many smiling faces 😊

Our second-year students celebrated May the 4th in the best way possible with a Star Wars movie night at West Cinema 🍕🎬The evening included pizza, a private screening, and a behind-the-scenes tour of the theater. Students got to see the original stage and visit the projection room where the films are brought to life.

From a unique look inside the theater to a fun night together, the Force was definitely with us for this one 🌟
