Once you’re a student of Dawn James you carry her lessons with you. To celebrate her impact on the Skyline community we reached out to some of her students from her time at Skyline. Once a Titan, always a Titan! ❤️

“Mama James,” as many of her students adoringly called her, Dawn James without a doubt created a safe environment for her students. She was their parental figure and guiding light at Skyline. To celebrate her impact on the Skyline community we reached out to some of her students from her time at Skyline. Once a Titan, always a Titan! ❤️
