Have y’all ever heard of Skyuka Hall?
Morning, lovely Chattanooga. Chloé here, and I’ve got some pretty cool news about a unique, local school that’s celebrating its first-ever graduating class.
📚 Hold up. What school are we talking about?
- Skyuka Hall. It’s a local private school that was founded in 2014 to provide individualized learning for students who have struggled in traditional environments.
- The school serves students who have been diagnosed with learning differences, such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, and/or Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
📚 Cool. So, what’s the news about the school?
Well, it just celebrated its first graduating class, which had seven people in it. And all of the graduates are on their way to college. Congrats, y’all! 🎉
