As one of the newest
members of the MCHS family, I am glad to be here.
I had been thinking about returning to the
Chapin/Prosperity area for a long time and it's great to
be back with my family, in the place where I grew up.
The 2007-08 school year is off to a great start and I am
enjoying the school, its staff, and awesome students.
Check out my Top
Ten Reasons to Teach at MCHS.
Mid-Carolina High School
was established in 1958 to serve and consolidate the
small, rural communities of Prosperity, Pomaria, and
Little Mountain, South Carolina. It is one of
three high schools in Newberry County, and has been very
successful, winning Palmetto Gold Awards from 2001 to
2005. Mid-Carolina motto is "A Proud Past, A
Promising Future." Its student body of
approximately 700 students is ethically and
socio-economically diverse, reflecting the changing and
growing nature of the surrounding community.
Student interests range from hunting and fishing to punk
rock to theater and the arts, from AP English to
Welding. MCHS is lucky to work with one the finest
career centers in South Carolina, offering state of the
art instruction and an array of professional
certifications in areas like Health Science Technology,
Automotive Technology, Carpentry, Cosmetology, HVAC
Technology, Business, and CAD.
Sports reign supreme at
Mid-Carolina and everyone turns out to cheer on the
Rebels on Friday nights. So many folks come out
that you have to show up early for the football games or
you'll end up parking way down off the side of Highway
76. This is still the land of the pickup truck,
and the three contenders for biggest in the student
parking lot this year belong to (from left to right)
Blake, Michael, and Ben.
