<p>Consider this circle of educational impact. Instead of waiting for potential students to come to us, our faculty and student teachers come to them. Yes, Mohammed must go to the mountain. We bring our teaching and testing skills to one of many local Clayton County Public Schools. We are there to prepare students for Clayton State admission and our Dual Enrollment Program acclimates them, one step at a time. Now well equipped, the students develop into high-achieving freshmen. Here, they feel the supportive arms of our university wrapped around them – enough to stay. And they stay for the duration.</p></introparagraph><image><img src="/news/images/teacher-partnership.jpg" alt="Teacher in classroom"/></image><tags><tag>academics</tag><tag>community</tag></tags></item>
