Principal's Message

Greetings from Lee Central High School! As I begin my new role as Principal at Lee Central High School, I want to take a few moments to share with you my vision, and two important goals for Lee Central High School during the 2008-2009 school year.

My vision for Lee Central High School is to develop an environment where students, staff, and parents work together to enhance student achievement and develop a thriving educational center within the community. After analyzing the data from the school report card for the past three years at Lee Central High School, I have developed two goals for the start of this school year. I hope to open lines of communication with Lee Central High School community and facilitate a process that will lead to more parental involvement. My second goal is to work with the entire staff to provide all students with a challenging and rewarding experience, both academically, and through participation in extracurricular activities.

Together, we can make a difference and I hope the start of this school year will be the beginning of a new journey for Lee Central High School. I look forward to working with you to make Lee Central High School a premier high school.

If at any time you should have a question, please feel free to call me at (803)428-4010. Have a terrific year!

Sincerely,
Nathaniel Nelson, Ed. D.
