ElevatED4SC tells success stories of how education transformation is already happening in some South Carolina schools. This vodcast explores what other states are doing to meet similar challenges and shares what education could look like with a whole child approach. If students are to succeed academically and in life, schools must also attend to their social, physical, cognitive, mental, and emotional needs. We are here to help lead that conversation. Our students deserve no less.

ElevatEd4SC is a production of ALL4SC, a University of South Carolina initiative that is leading the way in advocating for a whole child approach to education, created in partnership with the University of South Carolina’s College of Information and Communications and College of Education, as well as the Tri-County Cradle to Career Collaborative.
