Shannon Prepares for Graduation

 For the past several years Steven has been enrolled at Bradfield Center's Ault Academy.  The on-site school was opened in 1999 to allow residents to continue their education while receiving treatment for abuse and neglect.  The program has proven to be a true success. Steven recently graduated with a 3.5 GPA with  plans to attend Gainesville State College in the fall. His mother and brother will also be attending classes at GSC. We wish him the best in his future endeavors.

 

 

"What a pleasure to have had Steven in several classes. He is self-motivated and a great student. He always does as instructed."

  

Teresa Staples, a resident at Twin Cedars' Magnolias Second Chance Home recently graduated from LaGrange High School. As a teen mother, she balanced a high school class schedule (where she was an honor role recipient),  a part- time job and managed to volunteer her time at a local pet shop as well as,  Becca's Closet.  While at Twin Cedars, Teresa has also participated in the Circle of Care Program and learned various independent living skills including sewing. Upon graduation she hopes to attend college and work part -time to earn her college degree.  Congratulations Teresa!   

 

Staff and volunteers alike will be receiving their diplomas this month.

Congratulations to all volunteers and staff in the Macon for their accomplishments.
