In January 2017, TCS Atlanta sixth graders kicked off their human rights project-based learning unit with a field trip to The Carter Center where they were fortunate enough to meet former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter.
The sixth graders spent the morning at The Carter Center learning what the center is doing to promote human rights around the globe, connecting them to President Carter’s lifelong mission to promote peace and justice.
Former President Jimmy Carter died Dec., 29, 2025. He’ll be known around the globe for his legacy of service and dedication to human rights. Our former students will remember his kindness toward them and curiosity about what they were learning in school.
