Celebrating the 2025 Sagamore Award Honorees
Macon East Academy proudly recognizes the 2025 Sagamore Award winners, a group of students whose character and daily actions set them apart. The Sagamore Award remains one of the school’s most cherished traditions, made especially meaningful because recipients are nominated by their peers. Fellow students identify those who consistently lead with integrity, kindness, humility, and a genuine desire to serve others.
More than an honor, the Sagamore Award reflects a way of life. It reinforces the timeless principle embraced at Macon East — God first, others second, and self third — a foundation that shapes students into compassionate leaders who make a lasting impact on their school and community.
The spirit of this tradition is rooted in the Sagamore Creed, which calls students to live with trustworthiness, joy, responsibility, and a commitment to becoming the best version of themselves each day.
Macon East Academy celebrates these remarkable students and the values they embody, honoring not only their achievements but the character that guides them.
Macon East Academy was proudly represented at the State Spelling Bee, held at Vaughn Forest Church in Montgomery, by Halyn Wren, SJ Jemison, and Caroline Vocino, . All three contestants delivered an outstanding performance in a competition that tested skill and endurance, with each bee lasting nearly two hours.Halyn distinguished herself by advancing to the final four out of forty-five talented spellers from across the state – a remarkable achievement in such a challenging field.
Macon East Academy proudly congratulates Macon Hopson and Bryson Hood, who represented the school at the AISA State Spelling Bee for fourth- and fifth-grade students. Both students showcased their hard work and academic excellence on the state stage, and we are incredibly proud of their accomplishment!
