After two years of preparation, the official groundbreaking ceremony was held on November 12, 2002, and actual construction began on November 21 and continued for the next two and a half years. Lake Marion High School and Technology Center was created for the 2004-2005 school year by consolidating Elloree High School and Holly Hill-Roberts High School. Since the building was not completed until the summer of 2005, Lake Marion High School and Technology Center’s first year was actually split between two locations: a Holly Hill campus and an Elloree campus. However, the Class of 2005, the school’s first graduation class, held their commencement exercises at the football field on the new campus. The building was formally dedicated at a ribbon cutting ceremony held on July 31, 2005. During the 2006-2007 school year, Lake Marion High School and Technology Center earned accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement. In 2008, LMHS met all objectives under Adequate Yearly Progress required under No Child Left Behind and received an excellent growth rating from the South Carolina Department of Education. During this same year, the school received the Palmetto Gold Award for General Performance and the Palmetto Silver Award for Closing the Achievement Gaps. Lake Marion High School and Technology Center currently has an enrollment of 884 students and 141 faculty and staff. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lake Marion High School & Technology Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
