“I am incredibly proud of our students for earning 2nd place in the state and 1st place in our region in Math Nation’s Test Yourself. Challenge,” said Principal Dr. Erin Doty. “Their hard work and determination in completing the Boot Camp Challenge truly reflect their dedication to learning and commitment to excellence. This achievement is a testament not only to our students’ perseverance, but also to the unwavering support and dedication of our teachers, who worked tirelessly to prepare students for SC READY and for success in 7th grade. We celebrate this accomplishment together as a school community.”
South Carolina Region 3 includes Edgefield, Barnwell, Calhoun, Allendale, Bamberg, Sumter, Orangeburg, Aiken, Lexington, and Richland counties.
“This is what commitment looks like,” said Dr. Tiffany Arnold, National Implementation Partner of Math Nation+ in South Carolina. “Crossroads teachers met with me at 7:30 in the morning—before the school day even began—twice, to ensure they fully understood every part of the Boot Camp and Challenge. That level of dedication shows up in the classroom, and their students’ success is the result.”
