Audrey attended Nashville School of the Arts for high school. It is a public magnet school with no religious affiliation.
She later attended Nossi College of Art & Design, a private, for-profit school. Being a for-profit college, the acceptance rate is pretty much “breathing and can hold a pencil”. It’s former longtime location was a literal storefront:
Audrey lived at 3005 Brightwood near Vanderbilt University. The distance between her home and the Covenant School (red circle) is 3 miles. According to the police she planned on targeting other locations, possible another school and a shopping area. Green Hills is the largest shopping area in Nashville with two malls and numerous other stores and it is smack center between Audrey’s house and Covenant School.

Hillsboro High School (green) is right across the street from Green Hills Mall. Lipscomb Academy (lower blue), a K-4th, and JT Moore Middle School (upper blue) are less than a mile from Covenant School. Lipscomb Academy is a private Christian school affiliated with Lipscomb University, which is part of the Church of Christ. It is proudly conservative and was
listed as one of the most “anti-LGBT” schools in the US in 2021.
Traffic on Hillsboro Road where the high school and mall are located would not have allowed her quick travel; it’s a nightmare of lights, congestion, and construction. It is very easy to get from Covenant to Lipscomb Academy as there are no lights or stop signs— it’s just a straight shoot down Harding Place. However Lipscomb Academy has an SRO team in place, thanks to its connection to the university. I believe Lipscomb Academy was the thwarted target.
It is surprising to hear her parents were religious conservatives as people in this area of town who are Christian tend to be of the much more liberal stripe. The center her mother works at is a nondenominational one. Evangelicals tend not to live in Green Hills or near Vanderbilt.
I’m including the screenshots I was able to grab before tango down:
