The Atlanta Education Foundation (AEF) acknowledged the top 10 percent of the Atlanta High School senior class of 2014 with “A Night with the Academic Stars” at the Atlanta Middle School cafetorium on May 29. This is the fourth celebration of the Eddy Awards.
Each honoree was announced on the red carpet by the booming voice of Chris Easley. A member of the AEF board of directors escorted each student and their family to tables adorned with silver stars and white hydrangeas in tall crystal vases.
The crowd greeted proclamation with thunderous applause.
The cafetorium was resplendent with gold trophies and glittering signs of encouragement. Big Jake’s Bar-B-Que catered the affair, while the Junior Class of AHS functioned as servers for the evening.
