Teranga Academy celebrates first graduating class

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – The Teranga Academy opened in Bowling Green in 2022 and now is celebrating students moving up in levels of proficiency and graduating from the academy or transitioning into Bowling Green Junior High and Bowling Green High School.

15 students graduated on Wednesday from Teranga Academy who are transitioning to Bowling Green High School, coming from several different countries. In some cases, students who had missed out on a few years of schooling caught up to grade level and are now ready to integrate into the traditional school system.
