Education
Program has big success preventing school dropouts
Carolina Live, Timmonsville, SC – May 22, 2010
Educators in Timmonsville are praising a dropout prevention program for at-risk high school students. The statewide program started five years ago under the leadership of Governor Mark Sanford and the state Workforce Investment Board. Friday, we caught up with the students from Timmonsville High School picking up trash along the highway. It’s part of their community service project with Jobs for America’s Graduates better known as JAG, a statewide dropout prevention program.
