Sherman College Provost Bob Irwin, D.C., joined more than 40 area public school superintendents, college and university presidents, and local business leaders for a candid discussion on creating coherence when looking at the educational and future economic success of children in Upstate South Carolina. The event, hosted by Ten at the Top and Public Education Partners, was held February 28 at the Tri-County Tech Easley campus.

“Sherman College is proud to support and contribute to this important discussion that focuses on helping the students of the Upstate,” Irwin said of the college’s participation in this initiative; Sherman College works with Ten at the Top at the benefactor partnership level.

Upstate South Carolina is home to 23 public school districts and more than 20 technical colleges, two-and-four year colleges and universities, and post-graduate schools and programs, all supporting the educational attainment and success of their students. The area is also home to thousands of businesses with specific employment needs, many of which rely on finding their talent from students produced through the local education systems.

In a region like the Upstate where the educational and economic success of communities are very clearly connected, creating meaningful coherence and connectivity could provide even greater value for students and businesses across the region.
