We're excited to share that Mrs. Christy Dodd, Principal of Flat Rock Elementary, recorded two podcast episodes for "The Education Beat… Evidence to Excellence" by South Carolina ETV! 🎙️🐯
Mrs. Dodd joined Monique Smalls, District Transformation Coach at the South Carolina Department of Education, for an episode on "Building School Culture as a Family" to discuss what makes a school feel like family and how strong culture drives student success.
We're proud to see her sharing the UNCOMMON story of Flat Rock and Anderson 3 on a statewide platform, and can't wait for the episode to drop! 🤩
