Congratulations to Jonathan Current,
one of our seniors who
was recognized during the Annual Boys State Recognition Dinner last night for his attendance at the 2021 Palmetto Boys State encampment, which was held during the summer at Anderson University from June 13 - 19, 2021. According to the website, “the American Legion’s Boys State program is a unique way for young men to learn about the American system of government and politics by participating in a mock governmental system.” For any male student who is currently in his junior year, applications will be available in March, 2022. For more information, contact Dr. Pontoo, Director of Admissions and College Guidance.
