“I’ve served a lot of lunches over the years, but the most important thing to me is showing all of my kids love and care. Their smiles and little thank-yous make every day worth it and so special. I’m just grateful to be a part of their day.” -Tammy Finley, Food Service Operator at Forest Acres Elementary

“Every child walks into the building safely.

“The teachers and administrators at Liberty High School were great at connecting with students and talking to us in a real way. Teachers like Carolyn Brice pushed me to do better, and Coach Shumpert went beyond just teaching leadership—he showed me how to work with all kinds of people and to always put others first. They invested in me and pushed me more than anything outside of school ever has. They let me be myself and helped set me up for success in the future.” - Sergeant Brady Autrey, Liberty High School Class of 2014

“Last year, SDPC adopted HMH Into Reading for K5–5th grade, and the results have already been remarkable for our students. Structured Literacy teaches reading by explicitly and systematically showing how the English language works. This approach has helped build a strong foundation for our kindergartners, giving them confidence in both reading and writing while enabling them to decode much more quickly. Our first grade teachers are already seeing tremendous success from students who began with Structured Literacy in kindergarten, noting how well-prepared they are as they enter first grade. As a school, it has been eye-opening to see how far our students have come and what a success this program has already been for us.” - Courtney Ray, Kindergarten Teacher at Hagood Elementary School

“When a student finally learns something, the lightbulb in their heads goes off and they start sparkling. We are always seeing growth in life skills and academic skills. One of my favorite things to do as a teacher is engage my students in learning. If we don’t pull them in and engage them, they won't be excited to learn. We make sure they know why they are learning something, which empowers them for their future.” - Julie Simoneaux, Kindergarten Teacher at Clemson Elementary

“Innovation in my role has come to life most powerfully through the transformation of our school library into a Library Learning Commons. What was once a traditional space is evolving into a dynamic hub of creativity, collaboration, and curiosity. With the support of SDPC, we’ve redesigned the physical space to reflect 21st-century learning: flexible seating, creation zones, a podcast studio, and flexible shelving. But the transformation goes far beyond furniture. Our LLC has also become a launchpad for experiential and project-based learning, student voice, and literacy.” - Lindsey Douglas, Media Specialist at D.W. Daniel High School
