Hello! My name is Hilary Boyd and I am

currently a Senior at Wofford College. I am a

Spanish major with the Teacher Education

Program. I am from Atlanta, but fell in love with

the Upstate of South Carolina and plan to stay

here after graduation. I decided to pursue

language education after I had phenomenal

Spanish professors at Wofford and saw the

great need for more bilingual professionals in

our area. I want to get students excited about

Spanish and all the possibilities it opens to

them. In my spare time I enjoy hanging out with

friends, running, and cooking. I am looking

forward to this semester at Broome.

Thank you!

Hilary

Hello! My name is Chelsea Rogers, I am from

Anderson, South Carolina. I attend USC Upstate

where I am a Senior majoring in Secondary

Education with a concentration in Math

It’s great to be back! I graduated from Broome in the class of 2014, and

am currently enrolled in my final semester at USC Upstate. I previously

attended USC Union where I played baseball for one season. My

content area is English, one that I grew to love and appreciate during

my time here at Broome. I also coach during the summer for the Union

County American Legion baseball team. I am truly excited to grow and

learn as an educator and person, in addition to continuing to be a

lifelong student.

Conquer & Prevail!

BELIEVE

With BELIEVE signs popping up all over

Broome, some students decided to artfully

represent their native countries with signs of

their own. This small group is a snapshot

reflection of the diverse cultures among the

students in our school. We BELIEVE that

heritage helps shape humanity, and these six

students are shining examples of heritage that

crosses borders and remains constant, shaping

young lives in new lands, a fiber that runs

through all that these students BELIEVE.

DMTC Senior students attended the Honda Historically Black Colleges and Universities

Recruitment Fair in Atlanta, Georgia at the Georgia World Congress Center. Many DMTC

students received on-site admissions, scholarships and application fee waivers, helping them

achieve their educational goals. Students gathered information and had meaningful conversations

with HBCU admission directors and counselors. Admissions professionals from over 40 HBCU

campuses were on-site at the Honda Historically Black Colleges and University (HBCU) College

and Recruitment Fair. The recruitment fair emphasized and stressed opportunities that exist at

HBCU’s as well as admissions requirements, scholarship requirements, and financial aid

opportunities. The face-to-face exposure for DMTC students with admission professionals from

many college campuses benefited DMTC Seniors, helping them achieve their educational post-

secondary goals.
