DO YOU KNOW OF A STUDENT WHO NEEDS $500 TO $1,000?

The annual Senior Division of the S.C. Bar Association’s Law Day Essay Contest provides a wonderful opportunity to learn about our legal system, justice, get creative, and win money simply by writing an essay of 1,000 words or less.

The Law Day 2021 theme is “Advancing the Rule of Law NOW”.  The rule of law is a set of principles, or ideals, for ensuring an orderly and just society. Many countries throughout the world strive to uphold the rule of law where no one is above the law, everyone is treated equally under the law, everyone is held accountable to the same laws, there are clear and fair processes for enforcing laws, there is an independent judiciary, and human rights are guaranteed for all.

Eligibility: The Law Day Essay Contest is open to all students attending a public or private high school, or being home schooled, within South Carolina who are in grades 9-12.

Entry Deadline: June 4, 2021, by noon.

From Charlotte Cushman –

Hey everyone! We are getting a count of which families are planning to submit a family page for yearbook! The yearbook is fun and it is a great memory for your kids and your journey as homeschoolers. My kids look at the yearbooks from past years over and over again!

Whether you purchase a yearbook or not… we would love for you to send in a family page if you a member of CBCCA.

Please text me at 843-592-1502 (or email me at charlottecushman@gmail.com) with your name and whether you will or will not submit a family page! If you have already purchased a yearbook we assume that you will submit a page.

Due date is in April – more instructions to follow!

Just a reminder that there is one more chance to get credit for a CBCCA meeting this February; Weds Feb 24th Woman’s Life at 10:00am. You can also watch it at a later time but please don’t forget to let me know! The March 9th meeting will be led by Lou Cerrillo for Dad’s only. The April meeting is scheduled for April 13th and the topic is TBD at this point, we will keep you posted! About half of you have only attended 1 or 2 meetings so please make every effort to attend the 3 required meetings!! (Mandatory plus 2)

From Kitty Wells –

I am looking for a SUV with 7 seats minimum with a very small budget – could you let me know if you have something that would work?
