Dr. Sager was one of my youth advisors growing up in church. Not only did he teach us how to live a Godly life as teenagers, but he cared about our success in school. I ran into him in the mall parking lot in Murfreesboro and that's when we exchanged information and he shared that he was starting a school in our community. Now that I have a family of my own, I want to ensure my son goes to a school where people care about him and his future just as much as Dr. Sager cared about me and my future. Novus SMART Academy will be a great school for students to learn and grow, feel safe, and be loved by the school leaders and staff. Let's get this school open!
