On Friday, February 7th, Strom Thurmond High School celebrated the accomplishments of the 51 students who received outstanding scores on their college entrance exams. Each of the students wore navy blue or red Millennium Club t-shirts proclaiming the fact that they have scored a 1000 (math + verbal) or better on the SAT and/or a 21 or better on the ACT. The students were treated to a special lunch, and their names were also displayed on posters throughout the hallways as well as the scrolling marquis in front of the school.
These exemplary scores are the result of the dedicated teachers and rigorous course offerings at Strom Thurmond High School. SAT Prep instructors Michele Goforth and Patricia Woods, along with Principal Jill Jett, have proclaimed the first Friday in February as Millennium Club Day in an effort to honor the outstanding accomplishments of these students.
