Meet Ryan Brown, a proud member of the Rites of Passage Leadership Academy Class of 2026.

A senior at North Clayton High School, at only 16 years old Ryan will be attending Morehouse College and pursue the Dual Degree Engineering pathway to study Computer engineering. Throughout his journey, he has distinguished himself as a 4.0 gpa Scholar and an amazing leader, actively involved in his community as well as his school and church. But what sets Ryan apart isn’t just what he’s accomplished—it’s who he’s becoming. As a future Hardware Engineer, he is committed to excellence, leadership, and impact. He is Built For This. And Ryan is just one of many. On May 2nd, we celebrate young men like him—leaders, scholars, and future change agents—at the Renaissance Awards. 🎟️ Join us: www.100Southmetro.org/events 🎓 Support the mission. ✨ Witness the impact.
