Leaders for Change Attend Symposium

 

 

Along with a few hundred kids from around the county, Centennial’s  “Leaders for Change” attended the “Don’t Touch The Fire Symposium” to be inspired to become great thinkers and leaders.  Inspirational speakers and small group discussions focused on entrepreneurship, financial freedom, and testimonies of individuals who overcame obstacles they faced within their communities.  Students got a chance to speak with elected officials and personalities from the Atlanta Metro area.  The picture was taken with Greg Street, a famous radio personality in Atlanta. Students are (from left) Cynthia De La Cruz, Tai Vann, Roderick Rhodes, Dominic Miglionico, Cynthia Richmonde, Angie Martinez, Kenia Romero, and Mohammed Saleh.
