President's Message

Dear SCCTM members, sponsors, and colleagues,

I am honored to serve as the President of SCCTM and to represent the extraordinary math educators in South Carolina! I’ve been on the executive board of SCCTM in some capacity for the past seven years. I am encouraged and inspired by our members and supporters. Even through the toughest years in education, our organization has remained firm in our ideals. I would like to thank our Past Presidents Marc Drews and Dr. Ryan Higgins who navigated uncharted waters to help maintain our organization. 

I am impressed and motivated daily by the hard work and dedication of my colleagues across the state. From monitoring and implementing all unique and ever-changing protocols to modifying the structure of the educational system. I hope that you will take the time to reflect on all that you have accomplished. It is our goal at SCCTM to offer support for math teachers and to promote mathematics education. I encourage you to share your expertise by contributing to our MathMate publication, speaking at the conference, or running for office. Your work can benefit other mathematics educators in our state.  

 I'm proud of our successes over the last year, particularly for providing an in person conference. We are working diligently to provide more opportunities for meaningful engagement and outreach opportunities during the upcoming year.  Thank you members for your continued participation and enthusiasm in our professional community, and sponsors for your tremendous support. 

Wishing you a great and successful 2022

Alisa Hobgood

President, SCCTM
