Budget vetoes threaten funding for the arts in Aiken
The Arts Commission faces vetoes that could cut more than 1.1 million dollars in state grants to groups like Aiken Community Playhouse, Aiken Center for the Arts, Aiken Choral Society, and East Aiken Elementary School. Local officials warn reduced funding would hurt arts outreach, teachers, and community programs across rural and urban areas alike.

Zais proposes district to fix failed South Carolina schools
South Carolina schools superintendent Mick Zais urged creation of a state turnaround district to take control of failing schools from local boards. He argued current state options have failed and that the district would give trapped students and parents a chance at transformation without waiting for new leadership or elections.
