🎓 Education
Three Georgia high school seniors were named to the 2025 U.S. Presidential Scholars Program for academic excellence and leadership.
The winners include Creighton Matthew Hudkins from Blessed Trinity Catholic High School in Roswell and two others—Nethra Vani Pai from Northview High School in Johns Creek and Duc Duy Vo from Discovery High School in Lawrenceville—recognizing some of the top students in the state.
🌲 Environment

Researchers analyzed nearly 20 years of data and discovered more than one coyote per square mile, making current control methods unsustainable.
