Heritage Preparatory School celebrated the the graduation of its inaugural senior class on May 17.

Fourteen seniors walked the stage at the first-ever commencement ceremony at the school located in Piedmont Heights.

According to a press release, the Class of 2025 earned over $4 million in college scholarships and received acceptances from 45 universities across the United States and around the world

The graduates will go on to attend the University of Georgia, Auburn University, the University of Alabama, Texas A&M, Belmont University, the University of California Davis, William & Mary, and even the historic University of St. Andrews in Scotland.

“We find ourselves filled with awe, not because of what these students have achieved, but, much more importantly, because of who they have become,” Headmaster Erin Hames said in a statement. “They are scholars, artists, athletes, servant leaders, and thoughtful citizens. More importantly, they are young men and women formed to seek wisdom and to pursue lives of purpose and impact, grounded in faith.”
