A Letter from Tequila Lamar, Head of School

As the Head of School, I am committed to embodying this motto as I work toward achieving our core value of Excellence in academics, applied STEAM-integrated learning, and ethical leadership.

My entire career has been dedicated to education, spanning from crib to college, through my work as a Child Care Director for the YMCA to the Assistant Director of Upward Bound at Clark Atlanta University. I have also worked at nonprofits and government agencies all serving the children and families of Georgia.

I am immensely grateful to work with the scholars of Centennial Academy, including my own two sons, Frankie, Hero '25 and Taj, Legend '17.

I am committed to continuing to work toward excellence together. Please don't hesitate to reach out if I can be of assistance to you. 

Warmly, 

Tequila Lamar, Head of School
