For this year’s fourth annual Christmas drive, Daniel Morgan Technology Center was able to sponsor five children for the holidays through DSS.  A combination of faculty, staff, and students came together to purchase and collect gifts for children who are less fortunate.  DSS picked up the items on December 16 and will distribute them to families before Christmas.

Executive Director for Southeastern Construction Owners and Associates Roundtable (SCOAR) Mr. Steve Greene presented a check in the amount of $4500.00 to Mr. Greg Medford, Carpentry Instructor at Daniel Morgan Technology Center.  The money will be used to award a deserving student a scholarship in the amount of $1,000 toward continuing his or her education.  The remaining amount will be used to help purchase supplies and materials in Mr. Medford’s Carpentry classes. DMTC would like to say a big thank you to Mr. Greene and SCOAR for their support of our students and program.

DMTC is proud to announce the recipients of several scholarships. The Randy Giles Cosmetology Scholarships were awarded to two Spartanburg High School students: Cosmetology I student Armani Jones and Cosmetology II student Kayla Dixon.  In addition, The Larry Blanchard Automotive Scholarship was awarded to a non-traditional student (a student in a program where less than 25% is from one gender) Kimberly Atkins, a Broome High School student.  

First year cosmetology students are busy unpacking their cosmetology kits.  These kits will provide all the tools they will need for a successful year.  They contain necessary supplies like, shears, brushes, irons, a blow dryer, mannequin heads and much more.  #DMTCPrepares
