State Superintendent of Education Ellen Weaver visited CSF on Constitution Day, which provided an opportunity to celebrate the outstanding academic achievement taking place at the school. CSF is one of the first schools recognized by Mrs. Weaver as part of the "Superintendent’s 75 Club" after exceeding the statewide goal of having 75% of students meet or exceed expectations in both English Language Arts and mathematics.

Joining Mrs. Weaver, was South Carolina Teacher of the Year Corey Bedenbaugh. He shared a special lesson with Mrs. Brill's 5th Grade Students about the Constitution.

“There is a great deal to celebrate at Cooley Springs-Fingerville Elementary. On Constitution Day, we reflect on the freedoms and opportunities that have made our nation strong, and we celebrate a school that is helping build South Carolina’s future. As one of the first schools in the Superintendent’s 75 Club, Cooley Springs-Fingerville has exceeded our statewide goal of having 75% of students meet or exceed expectations in both ELA and math. This school is setting a powerful example of what can be achieved when high expectations are matched by hard work and outstanding teaching.”
