The South Carolina High School League (SCHSL) is looking for creative minds to design the NFHS Section 3 Meeting logo. The competition is open to all high school students of the SCHSL membership. The winning logo will be used on all materials related to the NFHS Section 3 Meeting, which will be held this September in Charleston, S.C. The student who designs the winning logo will be highlighted in TuesNews and as well as on the SCHSL social media platforms.

We are thrilled to announce the addition of a second student-athlete to our inaugural college signing class. Congratulations to Wyatt, who has committed to continuing his swimming career at Columbia College. We look forward to seeing him excel at the next level!

Please share your photos from games, practices, and team events. You can also access the link by scanning the QR code.

BBQ pre-sales are available on the school store.

Looking for a way to show off your school pride? We have stickers available for purchase on the school store for $5.00.

Athletic fees can be paid in the school store. These must be paid before your student competes in an athletic competition. Fees are used to help offset all costs associated with running an athletic program (League dues, uniforms, official costs, transportation, rental fees, etc.). Please reach out to Mr. Ball if you have any questions or need assistance.
