Students and faculty of Greenville Classical Academy in Simpsonville came together on Wednesday, September 23rd for "See You at the Pole," an annual event held every September. A short program next to a newly-erected flagpole consisted of raising the American flag, readings by various students, a time of prayer, and everyone joining together to say the Pledge of Allegiance.
Tim Cockrell, Dean of Students raised the flag, as Captain David Owen of the South Carolina State Guard stood at attention and saluted. The students wore their dress uniform which they wear for special occasions and programs.
Following the program, Captain Owen went to the K5 class to talk to them about what he did as part of the State Guard and answered any questions that they had.
