Congratulations to Mr. Greg Tysl for fifteen years of dedication to school board service. Mr. Tysl has been instrumental in guiding our district. The South Carolina School Boards Association recognized this outstanding contribution with a lapel pin and certificate.
The month of January marks the annual observance of School Board Recognition Month — a time to salute the nearly 600 school board members serving South Carolina public schools. Districts around the state participate in School Board Recognition Month to honor the contributions and service of school board trustees. The theme, "All In" serves as a reminder to school board members of their responsibility to give their all on behalf of those they represent. District Two Board members were presented with various tokens of appreciation from the district and schools.
As part of School Board Recognition Month, board members participated in an official signing of the South Carolina School Board Member Ethical Principles. By signing the principles, school board members publicly vowed to represent their local communities’ voice and vision for their public schools. The document will be displayed in the Anderson Two Board Room to serve as a public symbolic gesture by your board to uphold these effective governance principles.

Belton Elementary School students enjoyed a play performed by PorkChop Productions! The play was the story of a fisherman and his wife. The fisherman and his wife had to learn the hard way when they caught a fish who promised to grant them three wishes, if they would set him free. The story "addresses the themes of greed, keeping your word and being happy with the things you have...and not dwelling on the things you don't."
