'Accomplishing The Impossible' Through The Fugees Academy

When Luma Mufleh moved from Jordan to the United States in 1994 to
attend Smith College, she didn’t imagine she’d ever be running a
full-fledged school for refugees. But today, she’s founder of
Fugees Academy in Clarkston, a school specifically tailored for the
refugee population that uses soccer and a unique curriculum to help
students adjust to life in the United States. It has a 100%
graduation and college acceptance rate, and it was recently named
the “Nicest Place in Georgia” for 2019 by Reader’s Digest. Mufleh
joined On Second Thought to discuss her journey building
educational opportunities for refugee children.
