NOT Another Lunch & Learn

Event Information

The Third C in College and Career Ready....Collaboration!.

Tuesday, February 16th @ 2:00pm

Presenters: Jennifer Adams, Director of School Counseling | Gilbert High School

Jessica Calhoun, School Counselor | Gilbert High School

Dana Crumpton, Career Specialist | Gilbert High School

To participate please register here.


High schools in South Carolina are tasked with meeting the SC School Report Card criteria every year. The College and Career Ready indicator determines if students graduating from a high school are prepared for college or careers after graduating and impacts twenty-five points of the total report card rating. The challenges of meeting these postsecondary needs and requirements are too complex for one individual to manage. It requires solid collaborative leadership among many individuals. Students at Gilbert High School authentically learn and meet college and career readiness demands with the support of school counselors, administrators, teachers, and a career specialist and graduation coach. Join us as we share current practices used to improve the College and Career Ready score and, more importantly, how we prepare students for their E- Enrolled, Enlisted, or Employed, after graduation.

Volunteer Judges Needed!

When: Friday, February 24, 2023, from 12:30pm - 6pm AND/OR

Saturday, February 25, 2023, from 7:30am-Noon


Where: Embassy Suites Convention Center North Charleston, SC

(Please note that lodging is NOT provided!)


Judges may volunteer for either day (Friday or Saturday) or both if your schedule allows. Please note that judges must serve the entire time of the event chosen to ensure fairness to all competitors. Same as last year, we will be using an online judging system, so we are asking each judge to bring a laptop or tablet with them in order to input scores if possible. If you served as a judge for our 2020 virtual competition or last year's competition, it is the same system we used. Also, if you are judging a written event, the written portion of the event will be judged prior to the oral presentation that you will be judging. Written events are identified on the list of competitive events.


Interested in volunteering as a judge? Check out our list of competitive events to find an event (or four) that you’d like to judge, and register by clicking the link below.


Interested? Register Here

I will be in contact with those of you who are able and willing to judge closer to the conference. If you have any additional questions, contact Ginger Hill at scdeca.hill@yahoo.com or Ashley McCarter at scdeca.mccarter@gmail.com.
