PALMETTO CIVICS PROJECT AN INITIATIVE OF THE SC DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
Families are invited to participate in Summer SC 250 activities as South Carolina prepares to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and our state’s important role in our nation’s history. These summer activities provide meaningful opportunities for students and families to learn, explore, and connect with local and state history. Take part and help celebrate South Carolina’s rich history, heritage, and contributions to our country.
The Palmetto Civics Project is a resource-rich initiative designed to foster students’ understanding of and respect for the institutions that sustain our civic life. Our goal is simple but profound: every South Carolina graduate will leave school prepared to embrace the privileges and the responsibilities of American citizenship.
Please visit SC Palmetto Civics Project to learn more.

MIDLAND VALLEY HIGH'S FIRST ANNUAL VALLEY RUN |99 MILES. 24 HOURS. EVERY STEP HAS A PURPOSE
In honor of Memorial Day, the Midland Valley High School community is coming together for a historic first. The Valley Run is officially underway.
Starting at 9:00 AM this morning, Superintendent Dr. Corey Murphy took the first steps of an inspirational 24-hour journey to honor the 99 brave service members from South Carolina who made the ultimate sacrifice in active duty.
"For those of us who have served, those of us that have known those that serve, and those who may have lost someone protecting our country, it’s a day of honor. It’s a day of reverence. Today we celebrate, honor, and remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice in the defense of this country" shared Superintendent, Dr. Corey Murphy.
For every single mile conquered, a bell will ring, and the name of a fallen hero will be spoken aloud.
Come down to the track, line the path, and help us cheer these incredible runners through the day and night!
Set your alarms for tomorrow morning! Principal Higgenbottom will take to the track to run the final, ceremonial lap to bring this powerful event home. Let’s pack the stands to welcome our runners across the finish line!
Grab lunch, a cold drink, or a sweet treat while you show your support:
Samoan BBQ | 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Bubbly Bunch | 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Flannigan's Ice Cream | Keep an eye out for a potential sweet-treat visit!
(Shoutout to Palmetto Bowl, who was on-site from 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM kicking off our morning!)
Let’s show these runners, and the families of our fallen heroes, the true heart of The Valley and the Aiken County Public School District. See you at the track!
