Our new music teacher
We are happy to welcome Mrs. Lisa Young as our new music teacher. Mrs. Young, originally from Northeast Ohio, moved to Myrtle Beach 14 years ago. She met her husband, Craig while working as the Production Manager at The Dixie Stampede and owns the horse that Craig used to ride in the show. She has a BA in Vocal Performance from Butler University as well as a BS in Music Education (K-12) from Coastal Carolina University. When she isn’t teaching, she runs a photography studio in Myrtle Beach, and in her free time, she enjoys snowboarding, horseback riding, hiking, camping and going to the beach with her three children, Lydia (9), Lily (7) and Tripp (3).

Cell phone reminder: Students may not bring cell phones to school. If a parent has a reason for a child to bring the phone on a certain day, that reason must be contained in a note with the parent’s signature. The phone must then be turned into the office, with the note, and retrieved at the end of the day. A new note must be sent for each time the phone comes to school.
