The bridge symbolizes The Pass with its four pillars reflecting our mission statement. It’s an iconic landmark in Orange Beach, guiding those coming and going as they explore deeper waters. The beach and waves represent our community. Tied to Orange Beach forever, this marks how our community is integral to our success and represents our foundation. Together, these elements form the Mako, representing our staff, students, and system’s relentless drive forward.
