She never settles for mediocre work, looking for excellence in every assignment. She takes pride in everything she does and will not stop until she's completed things to her high expectation.”

Anna Grace set her post high school goals early and has worked tirelessly to attain them. This fall, Anna Grace will attend Athens Tech to earn her degree in Dental Hygiene.
