Calvin Mackie Visits Clark Prep

Today Calvin Mackie spoke to the Clark Prep juniors and seniors.  Calvin talked about his life, his accomplishments and the hard work it took to get him where he is today.  Mr. Mackie brought copies of his book and gave a copy to each of the seniors and the majority of the juniors.


The students were excited to welcome Mr. Mackie and hear about his life - he grew up in New Orleans, struggled with low SAT scores, and persevered to get his PhD from Georgia Tech in Mechanical Engineering.  


The students of Clark Prep would like to thank Mr. Mackie for visiting the school today and sharing his story.
