Chief Academic Officer Brad Moore made a surprise visit to several classrooms this week to share some exciting news! 🎉

As part of the South Carolina Department of Education’s Instructional Leadership Pilot Fund, Anderson One received funding to strengthen instructional leadership capacity, improve leadership development systems, and support school- and district-level practices that support teaching and learning.

A portion of this funding will be used to provide tuition reimbursement for these ASD1 educators participating in Clemson University’s leadership cohort.

“We view this as a leadership investment that builds capacity across the district,” said Mr. Moore. “Leadership is much more than a title in Anderson One. It is an opportunity to positively impact students and create the conditions for future success!” 🌟
