Civic Association members declare bid for council seat By HAYDEN SUMLIN hayden@appenmedia.com
FORD
HUBBARD
High Point Civic Association President Mary Ford and board member Colin Hubbard are vying for the District 5 seat on the Sandy Springs City Council this fall. Longtime City Councilman Tibby DeJulio announced he would not seek reelection for the seat.
SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. — High Point Civic Association President Mary Ford announced her run for the District 5 seat on the Sandy Springs City Council, setting up a race against fellow board member Colin Hubbard. Sandy Springs is approaching its 20th anniversary as the state’s seventh most populous city. It holds nonpartisan municipal elections every four years. All seats on the City Council and the mayor’s position are up for election at the same time. There are no staggered terms. City Council races are determined by district, and voters may only cast a ballot for candidates running in the district where they reside. High Point is a large Sandy Springs neighborhood, covering nearly 4 square miles in the southeastern corner of the city. It extends from the city’s southern border with Atlanta north to I-285 and from the DeKalb County line west to Roswell Road (Ga. 9). The fifth district includes the High Point neighborhood and a small area north of I-285 and south of Hammond Drive.

Latino students thrive with play-based learning at summer camp By HAYDEN SUMLIN hayden@appenmedia.com SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. — Los Niños Primero is using a Finnish model to reshape the future of learning in Metro Atlanta’s Latino community through its
new partnership with Lumo Education. Los Niños Primero provides educational support to underserved Latino children and their families through a variety of in-person programming. Lumo Education, a global consultant for student-centered education mod-
els, says its highly individualized and play-based approach is recognized for its efficiency and outcomes. Instead of emphasizing memorization and standardized testing, the Finnish company says it promotes creativity, collaboration, communication, critical thinking and care.
Leadership from both organizations held a panel, “Global Learning, Local Impact,” June 12 at The Mount Vernon School’s Main Campus to announce the partnership.
