District weighs stricter PTO fund controls after embezzlement
Aiken County School District considers new PTO policies to separate deposits and disbursements and ensure monthly financial statements reach non financial members. The move follows a North Augusta Middle School PTO treasurer’s guilty plea for misusing at least 28000 dollars from PTO accounts and a six year sentence suspended on probation.

Cumbee Center faces cuts to sexual assault services funding
Cumbee Center revival faces a $21,000 reduction in sexual assault services and prevention programs across Aiken, McCormick, Barnwell, and Allendale counties, part of an $850,000 operating budget with programs already earmarked. Shrinking funds threaten shelter costs, crisis aid, education, and victim services. Local officials urge residents to contact legislators as veto considerations loom.
