These partners have joined together for this statewide initiative to promote the retention and creation of community-centered schools in South Carolina. Our initiative is one of just six states in the country to receive funding from the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the US Environmental Protection Agency to find new strategies for siting schools that not only achieves educational objectives but also anchor the local neighborhood, support public health, create a cleaner environment, spur economic development, and offer additional amenities to the community. We hope you will join us for this important discussion!
