Traditional high school wasn’t all that smooth for Cobi Dawson. He discovered the Gwinnett County Acceleration Academies program.
“Traditional school wasn’t really for me,” Dawson said. “Like people, everybody wants to be alike. They act like people they’re not; they hang around other people they do the wrong things.”
The program caters to students who felt traditional high school wasn’t working out. It’s primarily an online program, that also requires them to come into the building 12 hours a week.
Gwinnett County Public Schools is a partner, and the program is free to students….Read and watch the news segment at Atlanta News First on Gwinnett County Acceleration Academies students here.
