We are so proud that two of our paraeducators, Ms. Calhoun and Ms. Hightower, were selected to participate in the Center's EPIC Registered Apprenticeship. While attending the event, they both soaked up knowledge and expressed their passion for teaching. Ms. Hightower was awarded a copy of "Oh the Places You'll Go" by Dr. Seuss because her reason for joining the program was so compelling! After completing one year of the program, they will eligible to gain educator certification through an alternative certification program and serve as the teacher of record! The program is no-cost, and all interested paraeducators are welcome to apply. For more information, please contact Ms. Tonya Davis, district liaison.

Our CTE programs love hands-on learning! Today, our CDL class participated in interactive activities including a matching game, blind challenge, and vocabulary review. After studying in class, instructor Mr. Creech took students outside to see the parts in person. These exercises give students a real-world perspective and prepare them for future work. We’re proud to offer a CDL program that helps students graduate with a CDL certificate.

Coach Lewis invited parents to Helmet Night to help our football players decorate their gear. It was more than just about uniforms, it was a chance to build community and fellowship. With our helmets on and our village behind us, the season is off to a strong start. We’re hopeful for a season full of growth, teamwork, and success!

The second day of our Teaching and Learning Institute provided valuable information and insight for our teachers to carry with them throughout the school year. There was a Frog Street training for our elementary educators and a co-teaching session led by representatives from the SC State Department. Mrs. Jones offered wisdom to each of our teachers, inspiring them to teach passionately, but also make time for their own self-care. Our teachers also learned how to use Atlas, our new platform for uploading and creating lesson plans. We are excited to see how all the new strategies and technologies will be implemented this year!
