Can you discuss the importance of strong black male role models in shaping the lives of the scholars at Valiant Cross Academy ?
Representation matters . We intentionally seek out role models who embody the values and aspirations we wish to instill in our students . These mentors provide a tangible vision of success and resilience , showing young scholars that they , too , can achieve great things . Mentorship is a vital component of our approach to student development , as it fosters both spiritual and academic growth . My own experience in mentoring , including the creation of the Brother2Brother / Sister2Sister program in Autauga County , has shown me the profound impact that dedicated role models can have on students ’ lives .
What are some of the success stories from the first graduating class in 2022 ?
The first graduating classes since 2022 have truly set the bar high with an impressive array of accomplishments . These young men have embarked on diverse and prestigious paths , joining the Army , Navy , Air Force and Marines , as well as enrolling in esteemed institutions such as Marion Military Institute , Alabama State University , Alabama A & M University , University of Alabama , Auburn University , Auburn University at Montgomery , Morehouse College , Tuskegee and Troy University . Their commitment to service and education is further exemplified by those interning at impactful organizations like the Equal Justice Initiative and the Beasley Allen Law Firm .
