Coach Lewis and several of our football players recently attended the Palmetto Combine, where nearly 250 schools competed. One of our very own athletes, Zamal Ellison, achieved the highest vertical jump of 40.5 inches! This is a major accomplishment, especially considering that our small, rural school earned a title among such strong competition. We can’t wait to see how our football program continues to prosper!
The next session of our Football Skills Camp starts tomorrow! Students aged 10-13 can develop offensive and defensive skills with Head Football Coach, Travis Lewis. Sessions are during the month of April only on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:35-4:45 PM. This camp is meant to lay the foundation, so that students can practice their techniques. It's not too late to start, sign up today to start training!

The College and Career Fair was full of opportunities to learn, connect, and explore different paths post graduation. There were a few colleges like Coastal Carolina University, Lander University, and Clemson University. Students got to learn about various career paths including STEM, cosmetology, and law enforcement.
