Frequently Asked Questions:
1. Busing • Free transportation is available as long as enrolled. 2. Meals • school lunch is provided. 3. Uniforms • Students are required on most days to wear a college I.D. and also a polo shirt identifying them as part of our school. 4. Calendar/Schedule • SEC runs on a different schedule than the other public schools in order to allow students to take college courses. We begin the first week in August and end the middle of May. Our day starts later too-at 9:15 am. 5. Can I still do sports, JROTC or band at the “big high school.” When a student comes to SEC, he or she is no longer a student at the other high school and can not participate in their extracurricular activities. Of course, you can still go to their games and public events! 6. Yes, it is hard! Students report that it takes a lot of organization and dedication to do well at SEC, however, you do not have to be super smart. Our school is great at reaching kids at their current level and helping them move forward, but they have to want it! 7. How do I enroll? Our student ambassadors will go to each middle school in Columbus County in January and talk to 8th graders. They will pass out applications at that time that will explain everything. 8. Can someone who is already in high school transfer to SEC? No. We are sorry, but the only time to enroll is prior to the 9th grade. Southeastern Early College Brochure
West Columbus HOSA and JROTC Host Blood Drive
The February 25th blood drive hosted by the
West Columbus High School HOSA with assistance from the West Columbus
JROTC “Viking “ Battalion resulted in 101 units of blood collected. Jenny
Herring and her HOSA blood drive recruitment team were excited by the
number of units collected. The blood received at the West Columbus High
School drive was immediately typed and underwent testing for hepatitis,
AIDS and other diseases in Red Cross laboratories. The blood is then made
available to area hospitals for use by their patients. One unit of blood
can be separated into various components, and for this reason one donation
can save as many as 3 lives. Nationally, someone needs blood every two
seconds. The Carolinas Blood Services Region of the American Red Cross
must collect 1,600 units of blood each day to meet the needs of patients
in the 110 area hospitals it serves. To schedule an appointment to donate
blood, call 1 -800-GIVE LIFE (1-800-448- 3543.) Blood donors must be at
least 17 years of age, (16 years of age with a signed American Red Cross
parental consent form,) weigh a minimum of 110 pounds and be in general
good health. EggCam at Cerro Gordo Elementary School

Over the past few months, Chadbourn Elementary has gone through quite a few positive changes. “The faculty and staff at Chadbourn Elementary School are willing to do whatever it takes to provide a quality education for our students. They have welcomed our new initiatives with a positive attitude and have worked diligently to implement them in an effective and efficient manner,” said Chadbourn Elementary Principal Deanna Shuman. “I am very proud of the Chadbourn Elementary School team.” The recent changes have been countless. In the area of reading, Chadbourn Elementary teachers are carrying out focused intervention lessons with targeted students each morning. This gives teachers the opportunity to work with small groups of students who need very focused, targeted skill-based instruction. Along these same lines, teachers are implementing small group guided reading lessons each day. This allows teachers the opportunity to work with students on same skill level tasks. The school also has modified their computer lab schedule to enable all students in grades 3-5 to have access to the SuccessMaker program three times weekly. In addition to the scheduled time in the lab, students have access to the program in the classroom setting. This program focuses on the areas of Reading and Mathematics. It is skill-based and allows students to advance on their level as the performance increases. If students need additional work in a particular area, they are not advanced until a particular objective has been mastered. Along with those two major initiatives, there has also been a new focus in the area of mathematics. The new adoption focuses on targeted objectives and heavily integrates the use of manipulatives and problem-solving. Through this initiative students being actively engaged in high level hands-on problem solving activities. The improvements from this initiative have been extremely powerful, Shuman said. With all of these three new, great initiatives in place, Shuman is certain that everyone will see a positive impact on student achievement. “The focused intervention and guided reading groups will impact the area of phonemic awareness, thus providing an increase in student achievement in the area of reading,” she said. “The SuccessMaker program will result in increases in the areas of reading and mathematics.” All of these initiatives are bringing to pass positive results, but also requiring a lot of hard work and dedication from Chadbourn Elementary’s staff. “I’ve been so impressed at how eager the staff is to make
a difference in the lives of their children,” said Kim Edwards, the
Columbus County School District’s Elementary Curriculum Director. “Many of
the teachers ay they are in the profession to make a difference, and I’ve
seen that to be true through all of their hard work and dedication. Congressman McIntyre Visits CGES
Congressman Mike McIntyre visited Cerro Gordo Elementary School recently. Mr. McIntyre taught a group of students a lesson about government and presented a check for Columbus and Bladen County Schools for 4.3 million dollars to be used for the Early Reading First program.

Columbus County Schools excel on ABC Test After receiving the 2008-09 ABCs of Public Education Accountability Report approved by the State Board of Education, the Columbus County School District has reason to be proud. Out of their 19 schools, 16 met their expected growth scores. These expected scores are assigned based on the school’s test scores from the previous year. Acme Delco Elementary, Nakina Middle, Tabor City Middle and West Columbus High School were four of the 16 schools who reached high growth status, which honors those schools that exceed their state-mandated academic improvement by a significant percentage. Overall,
Columbus County Schools test scores increased an average of 5.7 points.
Chadbourn Elementary School had the highest increase in test points in the
county, increasing 17.1 points from last year. Following closely, the
elementary with the second highest increase in test points was Acme Delco
Elementary School with an increase of 15.4 points, with the highest middle
school improvement being Tabor City Middle School with an increase of 9.5
points. East Columbus presented the highest increase of points of the high
schools with 4.4 points and the most improved K-8 school was Cerro Gordo
Elementary school with an increase of 16.8 points. Williams Township had
the highest performance composite scores in the county with 73.2 percent,
followed by Nakina Middle with 72.6 percent. The highest elementary
composite scores were at Old Dock Elementary School with 66.4 and the
highest high school composite score was at Southeastern Early College at
68.8. All of the district’s high schools were above 60 percent proficient,
which is where Judge Howard Manning recently challenged all high schools
to be.
Columbus County Leadership
COLUMBUS COUNTY SCHOOLS MAKE LARGE GAINS IN ADEQUATE YEARLY PROGRESS Columbus County Schools showed marked improvement in student achievement according to the federal No Child Left Behind Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) model. During the 2008-2009 school year, 13 out of 19 schools made Adequate Yearly Progress, compared to just four schools making the grade a year ago. As a school system, Columbus County Schools met 91 % of target goals, an increase of almost 10% from the previous year. Additionally, the schools system made AYP in grades 3-8. Several initiatives have been credited for this
increase. Prescriptive benchmarking, a process by which students
weaknesses are identified early in the year, is taking place on all grade
levels and gives teachers data that is used to tailor instruction.
Research-based software is also being utilized on all grade levels to
increase student achievement, especially in the area of reading and math.
Classroom walkthroughs allow principals to easily gather data and develop
connections between teaching methods and student achievement, allowing
educators to focus not just on how curriculum is being taught, but rather
focusing on the level of student engagement and the rigor of the material
being presented. Teachers and principals have also been credited with
implementing innovative ways of teaching. For a school to make AYP, each of the 10 student groups (School as a Whole, White, Black, Hispanic, Native American, Asian, Multiracial, Economically Disadvantaged Students, Limited English Proficient Students, and Students With Disabilities) in the tested grades (3-8,10) must meet proficiency targets in reading/language arts and math and each student group must have at least 95 percent of its students taking tests in both subjects. In addition, the School as a Whole (all students) must show progress. If just one target goal is not met, the school does not make AYP for that year. The 2008-2009 AYP scores are preliminary pending state board approval on August 6th, 2009.
AYP Results and additional info are

Budget Update - Budget Conference Committee Proposed Tax Increase House and Senate education budget negotiators met jointly for the first time Thursday afternoon to review differences in the spending plans proposed by the two chambers and to begin crafting a final budget. A major focus of the work on the budget was to gain support for a tax package that will provide $783.6 million in new state revenues that will head off some of the most severe cuts the House previously had proposed for public schools. The revised tax package, which is now incorporated in the state budget bill, would raise the state sales tax by a quarter cent. For public schools, the new funding will: maintain class sizes in kindergarten through third grade; save the following positions in FY 2009-10 – 2,586 teachers, 274 assistant principals and 357 instructional support personnel; and provide full funding for low wealth and at-risk allotments that help vulnerable schools and students. We encourage you to contact your representatives and express your opinions about this matter. Dewey Hill R.C. Soles Archives Updated
