Daniel Morgan Technology Center (DMTC) has been awarded a $100,000 grant through the Timken Foundation Domestic Grant Program, providing a major investment in the future of welding and advanced manufacturing education for DMTC students.
The grant, awarded through the Timken Foundation US-Based Plant Community Grant initiative, will enhance hands-on learning opportunities by supporting the growth of DMTC's welding and advanced manufacturing programs. The funding will help ensure students have access to industry-relevant equipment and training that prepare them for high-demand careers in the skilled trades and advanced manufacturing sectors.
Timken's Duncan facility played an important role in supporting the application. Tim Boosz, Manager of the Timken Duncan Distribution Center, provided a letter of recommendation highlighting the importance of investing in workforce development and career and technical education.
"This generous investment from the Timken Foundation represents more than funding," said Dr. Nikki Honeycutt, Director of Daniel Morgan Technology Center. "With the support of the Timken Foundation, we will be able to provide students with enhanced learning experiences using industry-aligned equipment and technology that reflect today's manufacturing environment. These opportunities will help students graduate with the skills they need to succeed in high-demand careers while also benefiting industry in Spartanburg County."
By providing students with access to modern equipment and industry-aligned training, Daniel Morgan Technology Center continues to create pathways to high-wage, high-demand careers while supporting the workforce needs of local and regional employers.
Daniel Morgan Technology Center serves high school students from Spartanburg School District Three and Spartanburg School District Seven through career and technical education programs designed to prepare students for college, careers, and life.

D3 Families,
We are excited to begin construction on the new weight room at Broome High School! During construction, temporary changes will be necessary to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and visitors.
Effective immediately and until further notice:
- Traffic and parking are prohibited behind the Broome High School Gym.
- All athletic drop-offs and pick-ups must use the Athletic Entrance shown in blue on the attached map.
We will share additional information in the near future regarding logistics for parking during football games.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

We had such a great time welcoming back and celebrating D3 staff at Convocation! Our theme focuses on a 100% culture — leading from every position to make a positive impact on students. The ceremony featured an exciting and thought-provoking keynote address from Dr. Joe Sanfelippo.
We then enjoyed inspiring messages from Superintendent Dr. Julie Fowler and D3 Board of Trustees Chairman Mr. Chris Jolley. We are excited to begin the 2026-27 school year!

Congratulations to Mrs. Marie Fox, our 2026-27 District Teacher of the Year!

Since 1976, wooden cutout soldiers of the American Revolution have been located at Town Hall. The soldier cutouts were first renovated in the 1990s. Over the years, the cutouts began to fade and faced natural weathering.
Last month, two Cowpens family-owned businesses, C & C Thunder Custom Cycles and Joe Ponder's Used Cars, purchased materials and hired a local artist, Sheila Abbott, to restore the soldier displays. Students in Daniel Morgan Technology Center's carpentry program played a key role in the project by cutting out each of the soldier figures. Ms. Abbott then painted the cutouts and prepared them for display outside Town Hall.
Thanks to the combined efforts of our students, local businesses, volunteers, and community leaders, these soldiers will serve as a reminder of Cowpens' heritage for generations to come. Great job, students!
