Undergraduate Degree Programs The School of Education has developed curricula leading to the baccalaureate in five broad fields: early childhood, elementary, secondary, physical education and special educationlearning disabilities. Although the number of credit hours required for graduation varies to some extent with the subject that the student prepares to teach, a minimum of 123 hours is required for any baccalaureate in the School of Education. Students are assigned an advisor with whom they should plan in advance their program of studies for each semester or summer session. Early Childhood Education. The early childhood education program provides preparation for teaching in four- and five-year kindergartens and in the primary grades (1-4). A substantial portion of the curriculum consists of course work in the liberal arts to establish a broad educational background prior to the professional sequence of courses. A content concentration in sociology or psychology provides related course work in a subject specialization. The professional sequence provides content and direct opportunities for field experience. The final experience is a semester-long student teaching assignment of which half is in a 4K or 5K setting and half in a grades 1 - 4 setting.

HOME INTRO SYMBOLS ALMANAC GEOGRAPHY STATE MAPS ... WEBMASTER Sunrise at Folly Beach Photograph: William B. Folsom S outh Carolina's thriving cultural center of Charleston, and the luxurious coastal island resorts belie the state's turbulent history. Raging against British taxation, South Carolina sent delegates to the Continental Congresses of 1774 and 1775. Throughout the Revolutionary War, the state fought and suffered through 137 battles on her soil. When the British were quashed at the Battle of King's Mountain in 1780, the tides were turned. The almost legendary figure Francis Marion (the Swamp Fox), also contributed to the British retreat. Marion and his men would hide in the swamps and strike out in surprise at British troops, only to vanish again into the unwelcoming swampland. British forces finally withdrew from Charleston in 1782. Enter a City or US Zip: I n 1861, when Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor was fired upon, the Civil War began, and South Carolina was again engaged in war. T oday, the coastal region thrives as tourists and residents enjoy the splendor of the sandy beaches and islands, and Charleston serves as the state's impressive cultural center.

Departments Animal Services: The Lexington County department of Animal Services assumes several roles in Lexington County. Its main purpose is to prevent animal attacks and to control the numbers of stray animals, but it is also active in a number of other areas. The top priority for Animal Services is to keep the public safe from animals that harm humans. These services include controlling vicious or rabid animals that can attack adults or children. Animal Services also picks up stray animals and enforces ordinances that require identification tags on pets. In addition, the department provides a temporary shelter for stray animals so they can be reunited with their owners or, if unclaimed, can be adopted out to new owners. Educating the public about the County ordinances and about spaying and neutering pets is an increasingly important component of Animal Services' duties. Beginning in fall 1999, Animal Services will visit schools and talk to children about spaying and neutering their pets. Rabies clinics will also be used to teach the public about the danger of this disease and give animals vaccinations to keep rabies out of Lexington County.
