A SULLINS ACADEMY GRADUATE
As a PS-8 school, we know that 100% of our graduates will continue their formal education. From preschool through eighth grade graduation, our purpose is to equip students with the tools to continue to grow, learn, and thrive in the challenging, diverse environment of high school.

continue to have an impact on me today.
