To the Friends of CCSD St. Andrews District 10:

Four West Ashley schools were among 403 schools recognized statewide in the annual "Palmetto Gold and Silver Awards" announced by the State Department of Education yesterday.  Our congratulations go out to:
  • Ashley River Creative Arts Elementary ... Academic Performance = Silver,  Closing the Gap = Silver
  • Orange Grove Elementary Charter ... Academic Performance = Silver
  • Stono Park Elementary ... Closing the Achievement Gap = Gold
  • West Ashley High ... Academic Performance = Gold,  Closing the Achievement Gap = Silver
Charleston County School District led the state with 34 schools recognized in the 2009 gold and silver awards.  The formula for recognition is a bit complicated - see the CCSD Press Release for more information.  In any case, we're very proud of the students, faculty, and staff at these and all West Ashley schools!    
                                                                         Keep up the good work,
Rob Dillon
for the D10 Board
