Let’s get to know Gabrielle Culberson, a four-year day student from Cartersville, Ga., who was selected as Darlington’s nominee for the Exchange Club's A.C.E.

As your senior year at Darlington approaches, one of the most important — and often overwhelming — parts of the college journey begins: financial aid. Understanding how to pay for college can feel complicated, but with the right information and a clear timeline, families can make confident decisions and maximize opportunities for funding.

My Senior Ventures project, “The Creative Athlete,” focuses on expanding and integrating the fine arts and athletic groups at Darlington. As someone who has been involved in both the fine arts and athletics and has seen the positive impact that participating in both activities can have on students, I feel it is very important for students' growth to participate in both.
Let’s get to know Savvy Palmer, a five-year day student from Calhoun, Ga., who has served as a leader in Cooper House since the end of her freshman year.
As an aspiring entrepreneur, I didn’t want to create another discussion about business; I wanted to create an experience for those interested. Senior Ventures has given me the opportunity to provide real exposure to students fascinated by entrepreneurship.
Through this special Darlington Connects blog series, we are proud to showcase the stories, connections, and lasting impact of a community that continues to embody Darlington’s mission and values long after graduation.

Let’s get to know Reese Bell, a 10-year day student from Cedar Bluff, Ala., who served as company manager for the fine arts department’s recent production of “Hadestown: Teen Edition.”
When I was in elementary and middle school, I read all the time. I had the time, and I loved to learn more about my interests. As I entered high school, I noticed the people around me weren’t reading, and I started to realize I wasn’t either. Even though I wasn’t reading anymore, I still enjoyed it and saw its value. I found myself missing reading and the simple joy it used to bring to my life. So, when I was given the opportunity to rally awareness and action for something through my senior ventures project, I chose to focus on the subject of reading.
