For the third year in a row, the Bob Jones Academy forensics team has been ranked in the top 10 percent of schools nationwide by the National Speech & Debate Association (NSDA) and earned membership in the association’s 100 Club. Washington Center students enjoyed visiting the Greenville Children’s Museum and learning many new concepts. They also enjoyed listening to music by a local singer. Greenville County Medical Society Alliance assisted in helping meet the financial obligations for the trip. The Barton Community Garden is a result of collaboration between Greenville Tech Charter High School’s Garden Club, Greenville Forward, Gardening for Good and various departments at Greenville Technical College. Garden Club members and GTC First Year Experience students created a new sign, and GTC English professor Kelly Mieszek donated worms to assist with composting. Also, the GTCHS Garden Club will help the GTC biology department with three adjacent gardens and potentially partnering with the GTC Library for a bat-house building event. The upper school students at the Chandler School are participating in an ACE (Automotive Cultural Engineering) class. Each week they work directly with a car to study how each part operates.
