Candidates for SC superintendent discuss issues
NORTH MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (AP) – 5 of the seven candidates for South Carolina’s education superintendent say the state’s schools face many challenges.
The candidates spoke on Thursday at an event sponsored by Winthrop University’s Center for Educator Recruitment, Retention, and Advancement and answered questions from teachers attending an annual forum.
Several candidates said 1 of the main problems facing the state’s schools is too many administrators and too few teachers.
But none of the candidates supported across-the-board school district consolidation, saying the issue would have to be looked at on a case-by-case basis and be supported by local residents.
Four Republican candidates and one Democratic candidate attended the event.
