The public hears so much negative about our schools and because of that we felt we needed to share our experience. Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the principals, teachers and students at Bowmar Elementary School and Warren Central Junior High School. Our girls suffered a tragic loss last week and their respective schools rallied around them with tremendous support. Teachers and friends came immediately to our home. They drove to Greenville for the visitation and back the next day for the funeral. The love, compassion, understanding and support shown by these schools can’t be measured by test scores, but it has touched our girls’ lives in a way that will last forever. These schools receive the highest possible rating in giving the things that really matter. We are so thankful that our girls attend Bowmar Elementary School and Warren Central Junior High School.
