West Lee Elementary Named South Carolina Department of Education Red Carpet School
Schools across South Carolina were honored today with Red Carpet awards to recognize their success at creating family-friendly school environments and providing excellent customer service. Lee County’s own West Lee Elementary School was one of the schools honored.
State Superintendent of Education Jim Rex announced the 124 winners of this year’s awards, which have become highly prized by South Carolina schools. Winning schools will receive actual red carpets to display in their lobbies.
"When you see a family-friendly school that emphasizes customer service, that school is much more likely to enjoy strong community support," Rex said. "That’s important because community involvement can play a big role in a school’s academic success." Congratulations!
