🌅🌍Horizons expanded as the Scholars Academy middle school students became more culturally aware and considered what it means to be human. 🌍🌅

Gilbert Kubwimana shared how he survived the 1994 Rawandan genocide and took the lessons he learned to start the nonprofit organization from Love With Actions. Mr. Kubwimana presented the Youtube video Hope on the Hill 2025 to teach us how he and his team are caring for the needs of children with disabilities, restoring mothers, educating the Rwandan community, and transforming cultural beliefs.

After a Q&A session, Dr. Sims presented Mr. Kubwimana with a gift from our school and the City of Thomasville. 🎁Asante kwa kuja! (Thank you for coming!)🌹

HOTC Hands on Thomas County Day
Mrs. Russo’s AP Biology students took on a fun twist to learning with an Organelle Speed Dating Activity! Each student created a profile for their assigned organelle, complete with a “cellfie,” its important functions, and even its “bad traits” (what happens if it malfunctions). This creative approach gave students a whole new way to connect with cell biology! 🧬
