ROCK HILL, S.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — It may just be the first week of school in the Rock Hill School District, but its newest superintendent hit the ground running in July.

Dr. Deborah Elder has been meeting with teachers and administrators, compiling a plan to make the district better by the end of the year.

"Working on Student Achievement Community, community workforce. Everybody depends on us to have students literate by the time they leave us. I want to make sure that when a student crosses the line at graduation and gets their diploma, that they have a certified guarantee that they are ready for the workforce," Elder said. "They're ready for military, they're ready for college, career, community college, technical college, anything that they choose to do."
