There are several members of the public school system’s Class of 2014 who have extra reason to celebrate. Aaliyah Davis is one of many students who would not be graduating if not for the Savannah-Chatham school system’s Twilight School. Because she repeated eighth grade, Davis thought she was destined to trail behind students her age. But Twilight School’s online classes enabled her to complete four years of high school coursework in three years and graduate on time with the class of 2014. “I changed middle schools twice, failed the math section of the CRCT and I had to repeat the eighth grade,” Davis said. “When I finally got to Johnson High, I was self-conscious about being older than everyone else.”
