Tybee Academy Secures Permanent Campus | Savannah News

Tybee Island Maritime Academy just secured permanent ownership of the former Thunderbolt Elementary School site — a huge step toward expanding programs and building a lasting campus. With demolition of aging portables underway and architects already in talks, the academy is gearing up for major renovations while staying deeply engaged with the island community. Executive Director Peter Ulrich stressed that this move doesn’t mean leaving Tybee — they’re committed to ongoing island discussions and will crowdsource campus designs with staff, board, and locals before finalizing plans. Huge thanks to families, staff, and supporters who made it possible — the future looks bright. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
