Clinton High School Cadets, under the direction of instructor Elizabeth Lusby, presented their Big Books to a special needs class.  Both the Cadets and their audience members enjoyed the subtle messages on self-esteem. Following the read-alouds in the school's auditorium, the Cadets and their friends enjoyed milk and cookies in the cafeteria.  This was a wonderful opportunity for the Cadets to interact with special needs students and further build valuable relationships.

Thank you, Jessica Phillips of  Bluffton High School for sharing pictures taken during a series of instructional activities and teambuilding activities with guest speaker Wade Bishop.  Mr. Bishop represented the  Beaufort County Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Team. He and his partner Nancy modeled different types of team building activities that students will be able to use in the classroom as they pursue a career in education.
