Graduate Greenville

In the spring of 2005, Greenville County Schools, United Way of Greenville County, and The Alliance for Quality Education formed a partnership to initiate and support a community-wide effort to improve high school success and increase the graduation rate. The partnership established a steering committee consisting of community and school leaders to guide the development of this document—the GRADUATE GREENVILLE Community Action Plan.

Many elements went into developing the Plan. Aided by individual members of the steering committee, a staff work group reviewed the Greenville County Schools strategic plan, current practices and programs in our high schools, and the State Education and Economic Development Act. Extensive time was spent researching national models and effective practices, which included visiting best practice sites and attending conferences on improving high school achievement. In addition, community forums were held throughout Greenville County with participation from nearly 800 persons from all sectors of the community.

The plan was completed in June 2006 and approved by all of the partner organizations later that summer. Implementation of the plan commenced in the fall of 2006 with action task committees at work by January 2007.
