Board Commendations

Crescent senior Emily Blackwell was commended for receiving the 2023 National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Spirit of the Sport Award for the State of South Carolina. Congratulations, Emily!

The Crescent Colorguard was commended for its historic season! The varsity guard started in Scholastic Regional A and quickly won that class. The judge's committee then promoted them to the AAA class, where they finished 2nd place in their first competition.  Going into championships competing against AAAA and AAAAA schools from 5 different states, the varsity won the gold medal in their class (this is equivalent to winning a state championship for winter guard competitions).  They also had the 2nd highest score out of any group that competed that day.  

In addition, the team was awarded the platinum medal for winning their previous class and being promoted to the next class. Congratulations, Tigers!
