Cavalier Battalion’s Cadets attend STEM Academy at South Carolina State University
Southern Lee High School’s cadets participated in JROTC’s second annual Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) camp at South Carolina State University (SCSU) June 11-17th. Southern Lee High School was one of 31 North and South Carolina’s high schools that attended. The camp was appropriately named “Camp Bulldog '' after SCSU’s mascot. Cadets were given a choice between Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Cyber Security, Computer Science, Micro Controllers, and Rockets to explore during camp. All instruction was provided by South Carolina State’s excellent faculty and staff. In addition to the classroom instruction, cadets received presentations by Savannah River Plant, Fort Jackson’s Surgeon, Fort Gordon’s Cyber Security, and Nephron Pharmaceuticals. They also went on field trips to The South Carolina State Museum and Lexington Water Treatment Plant. The camp culminated with each STEM group presenting their final projects to their fellow cadets.
We are thrilled to announce that for the 2024-2025 school year, ALL students in ALL schools will receive FREE breakfast and lunch!
This incredible initiative ensures that every student can focus on learning, growing, and thriving without worrying about meals. Let's celebrate a year of educational success and well-nourished minds! Read more at https://bit.ly/LeeCoCEP

Also last night at the BOE meeting, the appointment of Robert Newby to the position of Principal at Lee County High School was approved. Mr. Newby has demonstrated strong leadership in his tenure at East Lee Middle and we look forward to his work at his alma mater, LCHS.
Following last night's Board of Education meeting we are pleased to announce that Amy Lundy has been appointed Principal at Southern Lee High School. She brings a wealth of experience from more than a decade of leadership as principal at Deep River Elementary.
Lee County Schools is committed to investing in our staff. Tonight at the Board of Ed meeting, we recognized ten Assistant Principals who were the first group to complete the intensive Lee Leadership Development Program over the last year. We're proud of this group and their desire to grow and thrive!
Our teachers are constantly learning, loving, teaching and transforming at Lee County Schools. Taking a rigorous two-year LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) professional learning course was no easy feat. That is why we are celebrating the #LiteracyChampions in all of our elementary schools. Each elementary teacher who has been in the district for the last two years has completed this critical training.
Thank you to each of our teachers for their commitment to transforming lives through literacy learning in Lee County Schools.#LETRS
