#ThanksObamas

As our nation says farewell to President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, our nearly 1,000 diverse students in grades PreK - 12 expressed their appreciation for the President and First Lady. Watch this heartfelt thank you from our students.

Capital City has been lucky to welcome the Obamas on multiple occasions. In 2009, in his first visit to a school as President, Barack Obama remarked that Capital City is "an example of how all schools should be." In 2014, the First Lady, as part of her Reach Higher initiative, joined our Senior College March to the Mailbox and shared with our students, "With the education you’re getting here at Capital City, you have everything you need to follow every last one of your dreams."

We will continue to be a school where students of all ages and all backgrounds receive the education they need and deserve. Through a focus on deeper learning, student character, and community engagement, we graduate young people who are prepared for success in college and careers and empowered to make the world a better place.
