OUR DISTRICT THREE BOARD OF
TRUSTEES VOTED UNANIMOUSLY
TO PASS A REFERENDUM
RESOLUTION TO REVITALIZE OUR
ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, OUR HIGH
SCHOOL AND TO BUILD A NEW
MIDDLE SCHOOL.
THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF
ROGER MILLIKEN HAVE
GENEROUSLY DONATED THE
ACREAGE NEEDED FOR A NEW
MIDDLE SCHOOL IN AN AREA THAT
IS THE EXACT SAME DISTANCE
FROM COWPENS MIDDLE SCHOOL
AND MIDDLE SCHOOL OF PACOLET.
THIS DONATION IS THE JUMPING
OFF POINT NEEDED TO MAKE THIS
NEW MIDDLE SCHOOL INITIATIVE
CONCEPT A REALITY.
THE REFERENDUM WILL BE VOTED
ON ON APRIL 16, 2019.
VICE CHAIRPERSON CHRIS JOLLEY
SAID, “SO MANY OF THE CHILDREN
WHO WALK THE HALLS OF OUR
SCHOOLS COME FROM FAMILIES
WHOSE ANCESTORS WORKED IN
TEXTILE MILLS. THIS IS A
WONDERFUL WAY TO HONOR THE
SACRIFICES OF THEIR ANCESTORS
BY GIVING THEM THIS GIFT. THANK
YOU FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF
ROGER MILLIKEN FOR GIVING
BACK TO OUR CHILDREN.”
