Senior Video

Jeremiah 29:11 “Fame” performed by Mree composed by Michael Gore (b. 1951) and Dean Pitchford (b. 1951) Graduating Seniors: Kendyl Hayes, Destinee Sadler, Aliyah Young Our Seniors Kendyl Hayes Kendyl Hayes is a member of the GAC Spartanettes Dance Team, School of Ballet, and GAC High School Dance department. Her favorite memories are competitions, football and basketball games, and recitals. She has not only won many awards in regional and national dance competitions, but she has also held a few leadership positions such as being Co-Captain of the Spartanettes Gold Team and Co-President of GAC’s National Honor Society for Dance Arts Chapter for the 2019-2020 year.

Kendyl’s advice to her fellow dancers is to remember this quote and this scripture: “Sometimes you’ve gotta run before you can walk” ~ Tony Stark and Mark 5:34 which says “Daughter, you took a risk of faith and now you’re healed and whole! Live well, live blessed, be healed.” Kendyl would like to thank her coaches Ms. Caroline, Ms. Kristen, Ms. Kara, Ms. Houston, the School of Ballet Director Ms. Regan, and all of the staff of the School of Ballet for pouring into her and pushing her limits. Kendyl plans to continue her studies at the University of Georgia in the fall, with a major in Biology with the intention of becoming a diagnostic radiologist. She would like to thank her family and friends for supporting her throughout this journey and her parents especially for their many sacrifices and words of encouragement.

Destinee Sadler Destinee Sadler has been a member of the GAC School of Ballet and a Spartanette for two years. Her favorite memories are performing and building beautiful friendships. Destinee would like to thank Caroline Cates for being an amazing coach and someone she could always depend on. Destinee was captain of the dance team and president of the GAC dance department her senior year. She will attend Kennesaw State this fall to study nutrition and to minor in dance. Destinee would like to thank her parents and cousins, Suzanne and David, for giving her the opportunity to have such a great experience and memories. Aliyah Young Aliyah’s favorite memories are all the competitions she spent with the Spartanettes Dance team and the parties and other special celebrations she and her teammates shared. Aliyah will be attending the University of Memphis and studying health studies. She would like to thank her mother, father, grandmother, and brother. They are her biggest supporters and push her to be the best version of herself possible. In the Summer of 2015, Aliyah attended the Debbie Allen Dance Academy intensive. She is the recipient of numerous awards from dance competitions in the Southeast.

Aliyah would like to thank Ms. Kristen, who has been a huge supporter. She helped her through the hard times for as long as she can remember. She would also like to thank Ms. Caroline; her classes shaped her into the dancer she is today. Thanks also go out to Ms. Kara; she brings out the smiles and can always be counted on. She is grateful to Ms. Kristi and Ms. Margaret for all the hard work they put into teaching her the foundation of dance. Lastly, she would like to thank Ms. Regan. Ms. Regan has been a huge part of her life, and Aliyah considers her a spiritual warrior to look up to.

Aliyah’s advice is to never give up even when things gets hard. She believes that you may go through trials, and things may not go your way, but God has a plan for you, and it will be worth it in the end. One of her favorite sayings is “God’s rejection is also his protection” and the scriptures she finds helpful are 1 Timothy 4:12 and Philippians 4:13. Production Staff
