Carter Hill Smith, Jr., 2017-2018
Hill spent 4 years with us at Brookwood Christian. In addition to success in his academics, he felt that his organizational skills were helped as well: “Not only was Brookwood Christian able to attain an environment to make the teaching more suitable, but also helped me advance in my learning. With the advances of Google Docs and Google Classroom Brookwood Christian has redefined the use of study among their students, making assignments and worksheets very organizable.”
Hill plans to attend Coastal College of Georgia to major in Business, and possibly pursue a career in solar panels.
Donovan Theodore, 2016-2017
Donovan started at Brookwood Christian 4 years ago when he moved from Louisville Kentucky after living there 11 years. During his address, Donovan said: “If someone ever asked me: ‘Who were your best friends?’ or ‘Who are the people you would never want to forget?’ I would say: ‘The students at Brookwood Christian.’ He also thanked our principal, Kim Wigington, for “for creating a school where no one has to be afraid to be themselves, or feel ashamed for learning differently.”
Donovan plans to attend Chattahoochee Technical College and study Television Production.
