Wellness Entrepreneurship: After a 25-year Air Force career, Lonnie Wilson and his wife Dianna launched a second act as MassageLuXe franchisees—turning “self-care” demand into a growing family business with more locations planned. School Enrollment Snapshots: Georgia’s 2024-25 enrollment data keeps spotlighting shifting demographics: Westside Middle added 127 African American students (16% of 797), New Hope Elementary saw Hispanic enrollment jump to 34% (173 students), and Sope Creek Elementary reported African American students at 6% (65). Attendance Pressure: Across the state, chronic absenteeism remains a major theme—20.7% of students missed at least 10% of school days in 2024—while GaDOE pushes a real-time attendance dashboard and targeted support. Culture & Sports: Downtown Live drew crowds for a Taylor Swift tribute, while Stanford women’s basketball faces fresh allegations of a “toxic environment,” and the Steelers’ 2026 schedule drops with primetime matchups and a Black Friday home game.
