We are so grateful to Mr. Daniel “Big Dan” Fisher for spending time at our Wolves of the Workforce today! 🐺He shared his inspiring journey from working as a bus boy to becoming the Vice President of Operations at Guthrie’s Chicken. His message about hard work, leadership, and staying focused truly resonated with our students. They asked thoughtful questions and walked away with real world insight they can carry into their own futures. Thank you, Big Dan, for encouraging our young leaders!
Beta Club students stayed after school to earn their first service hours through a school beautification effort. They served our school janitors and groundskeepers who work so hard to keep our campus clean! Students picked up trash around the school building outside and helped dust all the window ledges inside, hoping to maintain a clean and inviting environment for everyone. It embodies the Beta Club motto: Let us lead by serving others.

🏒🔬 Our 8th graders hit the Swamp Rabbits STEM Game yesterday and got to see Newton’s three laws in action!From players accelerating across the ice to powerful slap shots showing equal and opposite reactions, the game was the perfect real-life example of force, motion, and inertia. What an awesome day of science + hockey! ❄️📚
The 6th grade choir enjoyed their first “informance” today for family members and teachers! We demonstrated what a regular class period looks like- showing warm ups, aural training, sight reading, and working on repertoire for our upcoming concert. We even convinced the adults to learn and perform some of our favorites activities and songs with us!
Tomorrow will be a dress up day for Career Week! Come dressed up as your past or future career!

To kick off National Career Development Week, our students came dressed for their future—ready for job interviews, important meetings, and college visits!
Today was also about building self-confidence, leadership, and the mindset for success!
We are so proud of our students for showing that there is so much more to success than just the outfit; it’s about believing in yourself and dreaming big! 💙🩶🐺
Students from Mrs. Ohler’s 7th & 8th grade choir classes had the opportunity to attend a choral clinic at Converse University with 15 other schools from Spartanburg and Greenville. The sopranos & altos were able to work with Katie Hardwick (choral director at Cane Bay High School) and the tenors & basses worked with Dr. Andrew Huish (director of choral activities at Bob Jones University). The day included a lot of singing, games, a fun lunch break, and a performance/college talk from students at Converse. We ended with a concert for parents to show everything we had learned that day.
6th Grade Orchestra did a fantastic job at their first ever concert last week! They played at the Fine Arts Center alongside 6th grade students from the other D5 middle schools.
