The South Carolina Education Association Recommends Hillary Clinton for President
The South Carolina Education Association (The SCEA), the largest and oldest professional association in the Palmetto State, announced their recommendation in the Democratic primary for Hillary Clinton, citing her experience, commitment to educators, and record of fighting for families and children.
“The classroom teachers, counselors, bus drivers, and all the members of The SCEA are on the frontlines of building a stronger and more prosperous America—and I know it is not an easy job. The educators of The SCEA are shaping our future by providing education and support to South Carolina’s children. I know from personal experience that our teachers make a profound difference in children’s lives. My mother had a difficult and painful childhood, and when she didn’t have enough to eat, her first-grade teacher noticed—and quietly shared her own lunch. Decades later, I am grateful to that teacher every day. From my early days working at the Children’s Defense Fund to my success creating a new teacher recruitment program in the Senate, I’ve stood with educators throughout my career and am proud to stand with members of The SCEA,” said Hillary Clinton.
“The South Carolina Education Association is proud to support Hillary Clinton for president because of her unmatched experience working with educators, students and parents. With decades of experience in working to improve our nation’s schools, Hillary will bolster early childhood education and expand opportunities for our students. As president, she will focus our classrooms on learning and will work tirelessly with our schools to ensure at-risk students stay in school instead of the juvenile justice system. Hillary is a leader who will fight to invest in South Carolinians in both rural and urban areas, and we want her as our voice to create great public schools for each child to fulfill his or her potential,” said The SCEA President Bernadette Hampton, a mathematics instructor and former department chair at Battery Creek High School in Beaufort.
The SCEA is the oldest and largest professional association for educators and retired teachers in South Carolina. Classroom teachers, guidance counselors, librarians, principals, superintendents as well as bus drivers, teaching assistants, lunch room operators, maintenance engineers, clerks and secretaries from pre-K to 12th grade and higher education are members of The SCEA.

A badge of honor for all considering who's doing the tossing.
