Meetings planned to sign up for charter school

Posted

Three meetings are planned for those who have students interested in signing up to attend the new charter school being organized in Colleton County.
The Leadership Technology Charter LLC will hopefully open in the fall of 2021, said organizer Sammy Hiott.
Meetings will be on Tuesdays Jan. 21 and Jan. 28, both at Coastal Electric Cooperative at 7 p.m.; and another on Saturday Jan. 25 at 3 p.m. at the Bells Masonic Lodge, 18612 Lowcountry Hwy. (U.S. 21).
The focus is to get 200 students, Hiott said, and they are “pretty close” to that number.
After students are signed up, the organizer will have to get a charter, construct the school and hire staff/teachers. All those plans are already in the works.
For information, call Hiott at 843-635-0502.
