Our students set academic and personal goals, prioritize choices to reach their goals, and work to solve problems and reach solutions together.

We are immensely proud of the Leadership skills our students develop throughout their years at Coosa Elementary School.

Mrs. Pender received a Master’s Degree in Educational Administration from the University of South Carolina, a Master's Degree in Integrating Technology in Education from Lesley College, and a BA in Early Childhood and Elementary Education from the University of South Carolina, Aiken. An article about Mrs. Pender's impact on Beaufort's educational field was recently published in Pink Magazine
