What began as an afternoon history lesson on Charleston’s role in the American Revolution turned into exciting news: a free field trip to Charleston this spring, where students will experience that history firsthand!
It's all because Mrs. Tonya McCullough won the Teaching America250 Award for South Carolina!
This honor, through the Jack Miller Center in Philadelphia, awards 51 teachers nationwide (one from each state and Washington, D.C.) with a $5,000 grant in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
That money is used to fund a project of each teacher's design that engages students with the history of America’s founding and the ideals of the Declaration of Independence. Mrs. McCullough chose a trip to Charleston to visit Fort Moultrie along with several other historical sites.
Students will also have the opportunity to attend a separate field trip to Cowpens Battlefield as part of the award.
Congratulations, Mrs. McCullough!

Clifdale Middle students in Miss McDowell's classes participated in "TED Talks" this week. They each prepared presentations on a short story.
In addition to promoting critical thinking, the lesson provided an opportunity for students to work as a team and practice public speaking. Great job, Centurions!
The program told the story of Santa’s wildly popular new website becoming overwhelmed with emails - putting Christmas deliveries at risk - until one student’s selfless gift request helped restore Santa's gift log.
Students and staff did an outstanding job!
Dr. Honeycutt received this award at the annual conference in recognition of her visionary leadership, commitment to student success, and unwavering advocacy for high-quality healthcare education.

The initiative was a combined effort from Beta Club and Student Council, concluding with the Turkey Bowl powder puff game organized by Mrs. Cooksey.
This week, students distributed the canned goods to Cannon's Camp Ground United Methodist Church and First Baptist Cowpens where they will help members of our communities.
Way to go, Centurions! #BetheChange!
