A
Good
morning,
everyone
I'm
bill
miles
with
the
hilton
head
island,
bluffton
chamber
of
commerce,
and
we're
glad
to
have
you
joining
us
again
today
for
another
power
hour.
It's
hard
to
believe
the
summer
is
just
about
flowing
by
only
12
days
before
the
beaufort
county
school
system
starts
back,
and
that
will
be
here
just
before.
A
We
know
it
today
we're
going
to
focus
on
education
and
some
new
and
innovative
options
for
students
in
our
area
and
while
we're
talking
about
education,
I
can't
let
the
moment
pass
without
giving
a
huge
shout
out
to
uscb
and
them
just
receiving
their
division.
2
status
is
huge
for
the
university,
it's
huge
for
the
community
and
certainly
a
a
step
of
growth
in
the
right
direction
for
uscb.
A
So,
dr
paneu,
congratulations
to
you
and
also
quinn,
monahan,
congratulations
to
you
and
the
entire
team
there
at
uscb
and
speaking
of
quinn,
we'll
have
quinn
monahan
as
well
as
dr
rodriguez
on
the
podcast
with
us
next
week.
So
you'll
want
to
tune
in
and
be
able
to
hear
each
of
them-
and
I
know
they'll
be
very,
very
interesting
and
then
also
to
help
ease
the
back
to
school
transition.
A
Well,
those
of
you
who
have
been
traveling
this
summer
have
been
on
an
airplane.
You
know
things
have
been
busy
and
we've
seen
unprecedented
summer
travel
we've
seen,
delays,
we've
seen,
cancellations
and
many
other
things.
You
know
our
workforce
continues
to
be
a
challenge
and
that
challenge
has
also
disrupted
air
travel.
A
So
this
morning
we're
going
to
have
john
rembold
john's
going
to
give
us
a
40,
000
foot
view
of
what's
happening
in
the
airline
industry
as
well
as
what's
happening
with
the
expansion
of
his
his
airport
here
on
hilton
head
island
john
welcome,
and
we
look
forward
to
hearing
the
things
and
updates
from
you
on
the
airport.
B
Well,
thank
you
bill.
It's
it's
great
to
be
back
with
you
and
back
with
all
of
the
the
folks
joining
us
for
power
hour.
You're
right,
it's
been
quite
an
interesting
summer,
quite
an
interesting
season
for
air
travel,
and
I
guess
one
thing
I
can
tell
you
is
that
every
year
has
been
different
over
the
last
three
years
or
so
you
know
when
we
entered
into
kind
of
the
covet
pandemic.
B
It
came
roaring
back
last
year
and
if
you
flew
out
of
in
just
about
any
airport,
but
especially
you
know
our
coastal
airports
and
any
other
resort
airports,
you
notice
just
huge
huge
numbers
of
people,
traveling
and
and
then
get
to
this
season
and
some
of
those
effects
of
of
the
pandemic
and
some
of
the
effects
of
the
reactions
to
the
pandemic
have
really
started
to.
B
Is
they
had
a
lot
of
you
know,
early
retirement
options
for
for
key
positions,
almost
all
positions,
and
that's
created
the
situation
that
we're
in
this
season.
So
if
you've
traveled
anywhere,
you've,
probably
noticed
that
there
are
a
lot
of
delays.
There's
been
cancellations,
even
things
as
simple
as
getting
your
bags
on
time.
B
You
know
after
you,
land
somewhere
has
been
a
challenge,
and
that
goes
to
what
you
mentioned
about
workforce
bill
and
that
that
that
continues
to
be
an
issue
throughout
all
the
ranks
from
the
the
very
top
you
know,
being
flight
crews
and
and
planners
all
the
way
down
through
every
level
of
of
airline
and
airport
worker.
So
you
know
the
the
folks
handling
your
bags.
There
aren't
quite
as
many
of
them
and
they
may
be
filling
different
roles
on
the
ground
crew.
B
So
you
might
wait
a
little
while
for
your
bag,
your
bags
might
get
mixed
up.
Sometimes
you
might
have
to
do
the
the
not
so
fun
job
of
tracking
down
the
airlines
and
putting
a
claim
on
your
baggage,
so
it
has
been
very
difficult.
B
We
haven't
seen
a
whole
lot
of
effects
at
the
hilton
head
island
airport,
other
than
to
say
that
when
things
happen
at
the
hubs,
it
definitely
trickles
down
to
you
know
the
smaller
in
the
regional
airports
like
ours.
So
we've
seen
some
of
that
haven't
had
a
whole
lot
of
cancellations
out
of
hilton
island
airport,
but
we've
we
have
seen
the
effects
of
the
other
ones.
So
it's
tough
and
and
one
thing
that
we've
noticed
and
some
of
my
consultants
have
mentioned-
and
this
gives
you
a
little
bit
kind
of
higher
level
view.
B
I
guess
of
the
industry.
Is
that,
because
of
some
of
those
early
retirements
that
happen
as
a
result
of
covid,
there
have
been
some
talent
positions,
some
what
you
would
call
them.
You
know
skilled
positions
on
a
team
who
took
advantage
of
that
and
left
and
they've
not
been
replaced
by
the
same
level
of
talent
and
skill,
because
it
takes
time
to
build
that
up,
and
some
of
those
folks
are
in
the
scheduling.
B
You
really
needed
those
high
level
and
very
very
well-tuned
professionals
to
be
able
to
react
quickly
and
juggle.
The
schedule
put
everything
back
into
working
order
and
you'll
see
that
the
loss
of
that
talent
has
had
some
pretty
significant
ripple
effects
through
the
industry
this
year
and
that,
unfortunately,
is
going
to
take
a
couple
of
years
to
recover
from.
B
B
That's
obviously
important
everybody,
so
I
would
look
to
see
you
know
some
easing
of
that
over
the
next
couple
of
seasons
and
then
you
know,
I
hope
that
we're
back
to
normal-
and
you
know
maybe
a
couple
more
seasons
so,
but
there
is
a
lot
of
good
news:
we've
done
some
things
at
our
local
airport
at
your
island
airport
that
hopefully
you've
seen
as
improvements
number
one.
This
season,
there's
more
rental
cars.
You
know
last
year
that
was
the
big
thing
where
nobody
could
find
a
rental
car.
B
So
that's
one
slightly
brighter
spot
this
year
as
there's
more
rental
cars
available.
So
for
the
folks
who
are
traveling
and
anybody
who
needs
a
rental
car,
that's
a
little
bit
better,
also
if
you've
traveled
through
hilton
head
island
airport
in
the
last
just
about
year,
I
guess
about
10
months,
you'll
notice
that
there's
concessions
in
the
airport
now
so
we've
got
a
company.
Tailwind
concessions
has
a
spot
set
up,
pre-security
in
the
lobby
area
and
then
also
post
security.
B
B
They
are
over
by
the
gate.
Two
areas
so
feel
free
to
meander
over
there
and-
and
you
know,
take
take
advantage
of
those
services
that
are
provided
now.
So
we
we
think,
that's
nice,
we're
looking
forward
to
you,
know,
obviously
being
able
to
expand
that
with
the
new
terminal
as
well.
B
Tsa
upgrades
that
we've
had
since
last
year,
if
you've
traveled
through
our
airport
you've
noticed
that
there's
a
new
full-body
scanner
in
there
which
speeds
up
the
the
process
through
the
checkpoint
and
if
you've
got
a
you
know,
any
kind
of
knee
replacement
or
something
like
that.
It
just
makes
that
process
go
so
much
smoother
to
have
that
body.
Scanner,
we'll
also
have
some
more
touchless
options
too,
as
you
go
through
the
tsa
process.
B
So,
as
you,
you
check
in
at
the
initial
counter,
there'll
be
a
new
stand
set
up
there,
where
we
have
100
percent
touch
list
check
in
and
id
checks,
and
that
sort
of
thing
and
all
your
boarding
information
now
will
be
able
to
be
checked
from
your
id
from
your
driver's
license.
So
that
will
be
coming
here
within
the
next
couple
of
weeks.
So
tsa
has
done
a
good
job
to
really
continue
to
upgrade
things
at
our
airport
and
make
travel
easier
for
folks.
So
hopefully
you'll
see
some
of
those.
B
Those
improvements
and
they'll
be
beneficial
for
you,
but
the
big
light
at
the
end
of
the
tunnel.
What
everybody
wants
to
hear
about,
I
think,
is
that
the
new
terminal-
and
I
know
there
was
an
image
of
the
the
front
of
the
building
the
elevation
of
the
new
building.
That
was
on
the
the
advertisement
for
this
power
hour.
So
thank
you
for
for
putting
that
up
there
just
to
let
you
know
where
we
are.
B
We
we
did
put
that
project
out
for
bid
and
the
bids
are
in
they're,
currently
being
evaluated
and
they're,
making
their
way
kind
of
through
that
process,
so
that
the
county
council
can
award
that
contract,
as
you
might
imagine,
they're
a
little
bit
expensive
in
today's
environment,
so
we're
just
kind
of
working
with
that.
But
the
good
news
is:
we've
had
a
good
bit
of
grant
money.
You
probably
saw
the
news
last
week
where
we
did
receive
additional
in
grant
money
coming
in
from
the
faa
to
support
that
project.
B
So
very
thankful
about
that,
and
also
the
the
state
of
south
carolina
earmarked
12
million
dollars
for
that
terminal
project
as
well.
So
we
had
our
local
delegation
big
kudos
to
jeff
bradley
who
really
led
that
charge.
So
if
you
see
jeff,
please
thank
him.
He
he
did
a
lot
of
work
to
make
sure
that
that
12
million
stayed
in
the
in
the
budget
and
made
it
through
all
the
way
to
the
governor,
weston
newton
and
bill.
B
Herb
kurzman
were
also
very
instrumental
there,
as
was
shannon
erickson
who
who's
the
glue
that
holds
that
delegation
together
and
then
once
it
got
to
the
senate
side.
It
still
had
to
you
know:
have
that
support
there.
So
senator
tom
davis
took
that
through
he's
on
senate
finance
and
that
really
helped
get
that
across
the
finish
line,
so
that
12
million
dollars
was
extremely
important,
especially
in
today's
environment
of
inflation
and
supply
chain
issues.
So
we're
very
thankful
for
that.
B
So
the
area
that
used
to
be
all
trees
next
to
the
terminal
now
completely
cleared,
and
it's
all
concrete
and
it's
it's
painted
up
and
everything
for
the
airplanes,
and
that
was
a
great
project
because
that
was
100
funded
by
the
faa.
So
that
was
a
about
a
5.3
million
dollar
grant
that
funded
that
entire
project
100.
So
there
were
no
local
funds
that
had
to
be
invested
in
that
one
which
was
fantastic
and
especially
in
the
you
know
the
wake
of
covin.
B
It
was
very
much
appreciated,
so
that's
complete
and
it's
just
waiting
for
the
building,
like
I
said,
we're
really
anxious
to
get
that
contract
awarded
and
get
things
moving
there
and
just
to
let
you
know
a
few
of
the
key
features
that
that
you'll
see
in
that
new
building.
B
I
mean
it's,
it's
an
expansion
project
and
a
renovation
project,
but
at
the
end
of
the
project
is
the
whole
building
is
going
to
appear
to
be
brand
new,
so
we're
very
excited
it's
going
to
be
about
three
times
the
size
of
what
we
have
there
today.
So
everybody's
going
to
have
a
little
bit
more
elbow
room.
A
little
bit
more
room
to
you
know,
drag
their
bags
around
and
things
like
that,
but
there'll
be
a
new
parking
area.
The
roadway,
as
you
come
into
the
airport,
is
going
to
be
changed.
B
There'll,
be
a
lot
more
room
in
front
of
the
building
to
drop
off
passengers
and
pick
passengers
up
the
full
front.
Lane
of
the
the
terminal
building
will
have
a
cover
over
it,
so
you
won't
have
to
be
stuck
out
in
the
in
the
rain
or
anything
like
that.
As
you're
dropping
off
and
picking
people
up,
so
we
think
that'll
be
a
big
improvement.
B
There
will
be
boarding
bridges,
so
you
know
for
those
afternoon
thunderstorms
or
in
the
cold
or
in
the
heat.
Our
passengers
will
be
able
to
enjoy
kind
of
that
first
class
experience
all
the
way
through
from
the
terminal
on
to
the
airplane.
So
we're
really
excited
about
that.
A
lot
of
airports
our
size
make
the
decision
to
not
add
those
boarding,
bridges
and
and
keep
the
walk
on
the
ground
boarding
of
the
airplanes.
B
But
we
decided
it
was
an
important
investment
to
make
it's
important
for
our
residents
and
for
our
visitors
to
have
that
experience
so
we're
making
that
extra
investment
you'll
see
a
brand
new
tsa
checkpoint,
and
I
know
a
lot
of
people
are
going
to
be
happy
to
see
that,
as
you
know,
that
the
current
checkpoint
is
really
kind
of
crammed
into
an
area
that
that
wasn't
intended
to
be
used
for
that.
The
building
was
designed
and
built
pre-911.
B
So
we've
had
to
make
a
lot
of
adaptations
to
make
things
work,
but
there
will
be
a
new
open
checkpoint.
Two
lanes
brand
new
equipment,
and
so
I
think
that's
going
to
make
that
experience
a
lot
better
as
well
and
along
with
that
everything
from
ticketing
to
baggage
claim
to
brand
new
restrooms
to
more
opportunities
for
concessions
throughout
the
building,
all
new
seating
with
different
types
of
seating.
So
you
can
work
while
you're
there
and
plug
your
devices
in
and
recharge
it'll,
be
a
great
new
experience.
We're
super
excited
advertising
opportunities.
B
B
An
interesting
part
of
the
design
was
that
from
the
very
beginning
there
was
a
large
community
stakeholder
group
that
was
that
was
asked
to
participate
in
design
input
for
the
terminal,
and
we're
super
happy
about
that,
because
it
really
resulted
in
the
building
reflecting
the
the
best
of
hilton
head
island
and
the
true
character
of
the
island,
at
the
same
time
that
it
will
be
very,
very
utilitarian.
So
there's
not
a
lot
of
extra
ruffles
in
this,
but
it's
been
made
utilitarian
and
will
reflect
the
the
island
character.
So
we're
excited
about
that.
B
It
did
make
it
more
expensive.
You
know
we
have
to
go
through
the
same
design
review
board
with
the
town
of
hilton
head
island
that
the
other
projects
do
and
that's
it's
a
tough
task.
It's
a
great
group
that
their
job
is
to
maintain
the
the
character
of
the
island
and
make
sure
that
the
quality
is
is
produced
throughout
the
island.
They
do
a
good
job
and
it's
it,
but
it's
expensive.
So
you
should
know
that
there's
been
a
significant
investment
in
order
to
make
this.
B
This
building
really
reflect
the
character
and
the
feel
of
hilton
head
island.
But
we're
super
excited
about
that
and-
and
hopefully
I
can
answer
a
few
questions
but
stay
tuned,
you'll
see
you
know
more
progress,
starting,
hopefully
very
very
soon,
and
I
guess
the
other
big
announcement
we've
got
a
few
weeks
ago.
We
we
just
launched
our
new
logo.
B
The
airport
did
a
rebranding
campaign
to
kind
of
go
along
with
the
timing
of
the
terminal
project
and
launching
everything
together,
so
you'll
see
new
ads
new
billboards
and
things
like
that
that
reflect
the
new
airport,
branding
and
logo.
So
we're
excited
about
that,
and
I
think
that
raises
the
level
of
what
we're
doing
and
I
think
you'll
see
a
real
first-class
approach
to
everything.
A
B
Question
and
tsa
staffing
is
a
challenge
just
like
everybody
else's,
but
I
will
tell
you
that
in
south
carolina
we
are
really
lucky
to
have
the
the
federal
security
director
we
do
and
his
his
name
is
dave
mcmahon.
B
So
for
the
last
couple
of
seasons,
that's
what
what
they've
been
able
to
do,
but
I
can
tell
you
just
on
the
larger
scale,
I'm
on
a
call
every
week
with
our
industry
and
they
always
talk
about
tsa
and
the
staffing
and
there's
a
lot
of
openings
there.
So
you
know
if
anybody
is
interested.
I
certainly
would
would
recommend
that
you
go
to
tsa.gov
and
check
out
the
opportunities.
B
B
Yeah,
it
is
a
good
question.
It
does
seem
like
we're
here
more
and
more
about
the
you
know:
weather
interruptions-
I
I
don't
know
if,
if
it's
gotten
any
worse
to
be
honest
with
you-
and
I
think
maybe
we
just
hear
about
it
more
because
we
we
do
have
the
news
at
our
fingertips.
You
know
on
our
phones
all
the
time.
So
whenever
anything
happens,
we
seem
to
hear
about
that.
So
you
know
not
not
to
downplay
your
concern.
It
certainly
is
a
concern,
but
I
don't
think
in
reality.
B
It's
any
worse
than
it
used
to
be
and
and
the
rules
haven't
changed.
I
think
that,
if
anything
that
it's
gotten
a
little
bit
better
to
to
route
airplanes
around
weather
with
the
next
gen
technology,
that
is
on
these
new
airplanes,
so
supposedly
that's
supposed
to
fix
things
and
and
I'm
sure,
with
everything
it
takes
some
time
to
get
it
100
correct.
But
you
know
I'm
not
sure
that
I
can
speak
real
accurately
about
that.
But
to
my
knowledge
there
haven't
been
any
changes
in
what
the
airlines
can
do.
A
John
stephanie's
asking:
what
is
the
deadline
for
the
for
people
to
get
their
real
ids.
B
Wow,
that's
a
good
question
that
got
pushed
back
again.
So
I
think-
and
I
have
to
double
check
this,
but
I
believe
it
got
pushed
back
to
october
of
23.
it's.
It
seems
to
get
pushed
back
a
year
at
a
time
as,
as
you
know,
covert
happen
and
everything
else,
but
I
can
double
check
that,
but
I
believe
it's
october
of
23
is
that
new
deadline?
B
I
would
encourage
everybody
to
do
that,
though
I've
I've
done
it
and
it
it
is
it's
very
easy
to
do
as
long
as
you
just
bring
the
correct
documentation
to
you.
So
it's
worth
doing
it
early,
especially
if
you
do
travel
and
you
want
to
you
know-
do
any
kind
of
tourist
activity
and
and
on
federal
installations
or
something
like
that,
it's
it's
handy
to
have.
So
I
definitely
encourage
you
to
get
ahead
of
the
curve
and
go
ahead
and
do
that
now.
A
B
Well,
joe,
I
understand
what
you're
saying
and
we
always
want
to
be
sensitive
to
the
folks
who
live
near
the
airport
and
on
the
island.
It's
a
little
bit
challenging
with
an
island
airport,
because
almost
everybody
who
lives
on
the
island
is
going
to
have
some
type
of
overflight
and
they'll
notice.
Some
some
activity
with
the
airlines
and
with
the
private
planes
as
well.
B
The
airlines
are
in
charge
of
the
scheduling
and
I
don't
want
to
dodge
your
question
by
saying
that,
because
it's
not
an
excuse,
but
we
we
do.
Let
the
airlines
know
if
we
do
get
a
significant
amount
of
complaints.
B
Where
folks
say:
hey,
there's
a
certain
time
window
or
prefer
them
now
to
to
operate
as
intensely.
But
we
do
let
the
airlines
know
about
that,
and-
and
they
do
listen
to
us-
we're
a
small
airport.
It's
a
it's
a
niche
market
and
they,
you
know,
they're,
concerned
about
making
sure
that
the
community
is
supportive
of
their
business.
So
we
do
pass
any
of
that
on
to
the
airlines
and
and
it's
up
to
them
to
make
the
final
scheduling
decisions.
But
we
always
pass
that
information
along.
A
B
Well,
we
don't
have
anything
right
now,
that's
been
exciting
to
announce.
I
think
what
you've
seen
this
summer
is
a
little
bit
of
a
reduction
from
last
year
and
that's
because
of
the
the
pilot
shortage
in
that
so
a
little
bit
fewer
flights,
but
I
would
expect,
as
as
the
pilot
population
continues,
to
increase
we're
always
going
to
be
a
place
for
growth.
The
airlines
all
have
have,
let
us
know
the
airport
that
as
they're
able
to
expand
and
and
change
some
of
the
the
destinations
that
we're
a
target
for
them.
B
So
I
I
think
that
we're
going
to
be
an
airport
that
that
receives
a
lot
of
attention
there,
huge
thanks
to
the
the
chamber
and
the
vcb
and
what
you've
done
over
the
years
to
make
the
island
such
an
awesome
destination,
my
job
on
the
marketing
side.
While
it's
not
easy,
I
can
tell
you
it
certainly
is
nice
to
be
able
to
market
the
number
one
island.
B
It
is
a
huge
feather
in
our
cap
for
all
of
us
and-
and
I
would
look
to
see
you
know
some
more
announcements
over
the
next.
You
know
next
couple
of
seasons.
I
think,
as
the
airlines
come
out
of
this
pilot
shortage
issue,.
A
John
thank
you
and
I
remember
from
a
study
done
that
was
in
2020.
I
think
the
airport
roughly
a
half
a
billion
dollars,
it
means
to
our
local
economy
and
that
was
in
2020,
so
that's
probably
increased
since
then,
and
then
also
generating
about
17
million
dollars
for
the
state.
So
it
plays
a
huge
impact
here
on
the
island
and
we
appreciate
you
and
and
what
you
do
and
keep
up
the
good
work.
A
All
right
that
was
john
rimble
talking
all
things:
hilton
head
island
airport
and
we're
going
to
move
on
now
to
talk
about
education
and
there's
some
new
and
innovative
education
programs
in
place
for
this
school
year,
and
you
may
have
heard
about
the
new
jubilee
charter
school,
which
was
founded
by
the
owner
of
chichester,
creek,
david
proctor
and
his
mission
is
simply
to
give
all
quick
all
kids
equitable
starting
lines.
So
everybody's
going
to
be
even
when
they
start
and
here
to
talk
about
that
launching
here
next
month
for
ages.
A
Three
to
five
is
the
school
director.
Amy,
dungan
and
amy
is
a
former
master
teacher
with
beaufort
county
schools,
for
I
think,
20
years
or
more,
and
then
also
the
former
director
of
the
the
first
presbyterian
day
school.
That
many
of
us
know
her
from
amy
welcome
and
we're
glad
to
have
you
this
morning
to
hear
about
jubilee.
C
C
Yep
I'd
like
to
say
thanks
to
john
for
that
update
with
the
with
the
airport.
I
remember
you
know
coming
down
here
for
the
christmas
snowstorm
in
1989
and
trying
to
get
into
the
airport
and
folks
were
out
there
with
shovels
and
brooms,
trying
to
clear
the
runways,
so
that
place
has
come
a
long
way
and
I'm
excited
with
that
progress
and
the
ease
of
which
we'll
be
able
to
get
off
and
on
the
island,
but
to
education.
C
You
know
we're
here
to
to
help
our
community
and
help
families
who
are
in
need
of
child
care.
As
you
said,
I've
been
doing
this
for
for
a
long
while
in
the
county-
and
you
know,
dave
proctor.
Our
our
benefactor
saw
a
huge
need,
especially
in
west
western
beaufort,
county
and
eastern
jasper
county
and
is
is
working
hard
to
fill
that
need.
C
So
you
know,
early
childhood
education
has
been
pretty
much
consistent
for
a
very
long
time
and
we've
spent
a
good
bit
of
time
last
couple
of
years
doing
a
lot
of
research
and
figuring
out
the
best
way
to
to
do
early
childhood
education.
So
we
looked
at
many
well-researched
models
and
came
up
with
our
own
our
own
way
of
doing
things,
so
we're
pulling
from
a
lot
of
best
practices
and
kind
of
reinventing
the
wheel.
So,
ordinarily,
you
know
in
a
regular
preschool.
C
You
come
in
and
you're
sitting
in
your
classroom
all
day
and
it's
you
know
four
cinder
block
walls
and
you
get
to
go
out
to
the
playground
a
few
times
and
that's
the
traditional
method
of
of
teaching
preschool
and
we
recognize
that
little
people
don't
sit
still
they're.
C
You
know
they're
they're
active,
they
want
to
move,
and
so
we
are
trying
to
keep
them
engaged
by
keeping
them
active
and
one
of
the
ways
that
we're
doing
that-
and
I
would
say
our
biggest
reinvention-
is
we
have
five
specific
rooms,
content
areas
and
the
children
are
going
to
rotate
between
those
rooms.
C
Now
little
children
love
routine,
so
they're
not
going
to
all
five
rooms
every
day,
but
each
day,
they're
going
to
visit
two
rooms,
they're
gonna
travel
to
those
rooms
with
their
teacher
and
with
their
you
know,
with
their
peers,
who
are
in
their
classroom
and
then
they're
going
to
have
a
home
base
willed
where
they'll
have
lunch
and
and
take
a
rest,
because
it's
still
nap
time
for
little
guys,
which
is
which
is
always
needed
and
will
be
needed
after
spending
the
morning
at
our
school.
C
So
our
first
room
is
called
the
romp
room
and
it
sounds
just
like
just
like
it
is
we're.
Gonna
have
gross
motor
activities,
lots
of
movement
and
music
and
dancing.
C
We
have
a
local
martial
arts
instructor
who's
coming
in
and
once
every
two
weeks
he
is
going
to
teach
the
children
martial
arts,
that's
another
research,
proven
method
of
helping
children
understand
their.
You
know
their
bodies,
giving
them
an
opportunity
to
listen
to
different
adults
and
regulate
themselves,
and
it's
it's
extremely
important
for
little
ones
to
understand
how
their
bodies
operate
in
in
time
and
space.
C
Another
one
of
our
rooms
is
a
maker
space.
So
you
know
in
that
room
just
like
all:
good
steam,
education,
science,
technology,
engineering,
art
and
math.
We're
going
to
have
plenty
of
open-ended
materials.
C
Excuse
me
and
folks
are
going
to
help,
engage
those
students
with
you
know,
discovery
and
building
and
creating
one
of
our
rooms
is
going
to
be
a
nature-based
room
and
we're
hoping
to
bring
a
lot
of
the
low
country
into
that
room.
I
myself
is
I'm
a
master
naturalist,
I'm
very
interested
in
that,
and
I
think
that
it's
important
for
for
children
to
learn
to
coexist
with
what
we
have
on
our
island
and
in
the
low
country,
and
you
know,
they're,
definitely
going
to
have
exposure
there.
C
C
We
really
need
to
establish
the
fact
that
there
should
be
a
love
for
reading
and
so
we're
going
to
hopefully
bring
in
volunteers
and
have
lots
of
one-on-one
time
with
with
individual
reading
and
obviously,
group
reading
and
reading
is
going
to
be
interspersed
throughout
the
day
in
in
all
of
those
classrooms.
C
C
So
when
a
lot
of
schools
do
do
an
initial
home
visit
to
go
in
and
you
know,
meet
families
and
and
get
to
know
children
on
their
own
turf,
which
is
very
comforting
and
when
we
will
do
that,
but
we're
going
to
continue
to
do
that
throughout
the
year.
So
we
will
have
a
coordinator
who
goes
out
with
with
our
teachers
and
we'll
go
into
the
homes.
We'll
talk
about
progress
and
get
to
know
families
on
a
on
a
more
intimate
level,
and
hopefully
through
that
build.
C
Some
trust-
and
you
know,
with
a
well-educated
home
visit
coordinator,
will
be
able
to
spot
if
there
are
areas
of
need
in
the
home
and
connect
those
people
with
social
services
locally,
which
is
which
is
hugely
important,
and
one
of
the
other
interesting
things
that
we're
doing
is
we're
bringing
a
a
co-op
model
to
education.
C
So
we're
asking
parents
to
donate
three
of
their
hours
of
life
with
us
once
every
two
weeks
so
that
they
are
in
the
classroom
with
their
children
and
with
the
teacher
and
learning
side
by
side
from
the
teachers.
So
we
have,
we
are
lucky
enough
to
have
hired
some
excellent
teachers.
C
Wonderful
experience,
advanced
degrees
and
parents
are
going
to
be
able
to
learn.
You
know
how
teachers
speak
to
children.
You
know
the
power
of
a
whisper
instead
of
the
the
shriek
of
a
of
a
scream.
So
hopefully,
parents
will
pick
up
some
information
and
be
able
to
take
that
home
and
use
it
as
well,
and
then
we
have
a
a
curriculum
that
we
have
had
an
expert
design.
C
So
we've
got
480
pages
of
custom
curriculum
that
we're
excited
to
to
step
into,
and
you
know
the
between
the
the
curriculum
and
the
room
rotations.
C
These
children
are
going
to
be
engaged
and
they're
going
to
be
engaged
all
day
except
for
nap
time,
and
you
know
that's
when
they're
going
to
be
exhausted
and
and
hopefully
take
a
nice
rest,
we
are
offering
a
sliding
scale
for
tuition
and
you
know
that's
going
to
start
at
100
a
month
for
the
lowest
income
level.
Folks.
So
we
recognize
that
you
know
there
are.
C
There
are
people
who
were
working
on
the
island-
and
you
know
trying
to
trying
to
get
here
and
trying
to
find
child
care
and
they're,
not
making
a
lot
of
money,
and
you
know
we'll
be
there
for
them
and
we'll
be
able
to
to
provide
a
quality
education
for
their
children,
and
you
know
preschool
is
the
foundation
for
further
success.
So
if
we
could
establish
a
love
of
learning
at
an
early
age
with
these
people-
and
you
know
the
sky
is
the
limit
from
there
and
from
there.
C
The
goal
is
that
they're
going
to
move
on
into
our
our
charter
schools.
So
a
few
months
ago
we
were,
we
were
approved
by
the
state
for
a
charter
school
and
that's
going
to
start
up
in
2023
of
august
and
originally
we're
we're
we're
licensed
from
k
to
five.
We
will
start
with
two
grade
levels
at
a
grade
level
every
year
and
then
after
that,
go
back
and
reapply
for
six
to
twelve.
A
All
right,
amy,
thank
you
and,
first
of
all,
it's
a
comment
from
joy
and
she's.
Saying:
congratulations
on
this
new,
exciting
program
and
then
she's
also
asking
is,
if
there's
any
mentoring
program
associated
with
the
school
after
those
students
move
on
to
other
schools,.
C
I
can't
remember
their
the
second
one,
so
they're
they're
in
jasper,
county,
real
champions,
and
I
assume
that
once
they're
in
high
school
or
even
elementary
school,
we'll
hook
up
with
those
guys
and
offering
offer
mentoring
programs
through
real
champions.
A
C
You
know
one
of
them
is
transportation.
I
mean
it's,
it's
tough,
we're
not
going
to
be
a
a
public
school
and
be
able
to
transport
people.
So
you
know
that's
an
issue.
I
think
that
the
you
know
our
our
ask
of
three
hours
a
week
is
a
huge
challenge
and
I'm
hoping
that
you
know
businesses
will
be
able
to
accommodate
a
little
bit
of
time
off
or
some
flex
schedules
to
to
make
that
happen.
C
C
We
have
38
applications,
we
are,
we
are
not
yet
licensed.
We
have
just
received
the
last
step
prior
to
dss
licensing
and
our
application
is
in
so
you
know,
we've
had
to
go
through
a
series
of
licensing
and
where
we
just
got
the
fire
marshal
the
state
fire
marshal
from
dss
to
approve
us,
so
he
has
stamped
the
application
sent
it
to
dss.
C
So
you
know
we're
at
38
applications
we're
hoping
to
to
bring
in
that
many
in
enrollment
and
we're
going
to
be
at
capacity
50
students
for
the
next
two
years,
while
we're
in
a
temporary
facility
and
we're
renting
some
space
right
now
from
the
red
dam
baptist
church,
which
is
out
close
to
carolina
coastal
carolina
hospital,
and
then
we
are
getting
ready
to
close
on
some
land
soon
and
we'll
build
a
permanent
structure
and
be
able
to
take
in
many
more
students
at
that
time.
A
I
believe
not
once
but
twice
and
just
doing
great
things
for
over
50
years,
and
this
this
or
I
guess,
started
last
year
was
a
special
offering
of
a
saturday
school
there
and
specifically
for
the
hospitality
workers
and
those
who
work
on
the
weekends
and
here
to
tell
us
all
about
it
and
the
saturday
school
program,
as
well
as
other
things
that
are
going
on
at
the
children's
center,
is
jody

D
Thank
you
bill
and
amy,
I'm
so
excited
to
see
how
things
work
out
at
jubilee,
because
education
of
our
young
people
is
is
really
so
critical
and
I
I
want
to
start
first
of
all,
just
by
making
the
comment
that
many
people
don't
even
think
about
child
care
as
an
issue
for
them.
Their
kids
are
grown
and
raised.
D
D
D
So
it's
it's
a
critical
driver
of
our
economy,
because
if
people
don't
have
child
care
they're
not
able
to
work,
you-
and
I
all
know
that
when
we
go
to
a
restaurant
or
we
go
to
the
grocery
store,
the
shelves
aren't
stocked
because
there's
not
enough
staff
tables
waiting
for
tables
takes
longer
all
of
those
things
and
child
care
is
really
foundational
to
all
of
that.
D
Brain
development
starts
and
is
most
important
from
birth
to
five,
so
those
are
critical
years
for
our
kids
and
we've
all
talked
about
how
third
grade
reading
skills
are
a
predictor
of
life
outcomes.
Let
me
tell
you
what's
even
more
important:
18
18-month
vocabulary
scores
our
little
guys
before
they're.
Even
two
are
predictors
of
that
third
grade
reading
score,
so
it's
critical
that
our
kids
have
those
foundations
to
be
able
to
precipitate
and
keep
our
economy
growing
and
strong
for
for
the
for
the
long
term.
D
The
greater
island
council
recently
did
a
white
paper
on
early
childhood
education
and
child
care,
and
they
found
that
we
have
a
real
critical
issue
here
in
beaufort
county,
not
enough
capacity
for
the
need
very
limited
year-round
capacity,
and
one
of
the
critical
pieces
was
that
there
was
not
available
child
care
on
the
weekends,
and
so
much
of
our
economy
is
driven
by
the
hospitality
industry,
and
we
know
high
tourist
season,
isn't
just
high
tour
season
anymore.
D
In
so
many
ways
it
goes
all
the
way
across
from
january,
1
to
december
31st,
and
so
two
years
ago
the
children's
center
was
approached
by
ed
gray
and
patty
saltis
to
people
involved
in
the
tourism
industry
here
on
our
island,
and
they
said,
what's
the
chances
that
the
children's
center
might
be
able
to
help
us
out
on
saturdays,
the
proverbial
turnover
day
right.
So
many
people
are
working
on
those
saturdays
and
there's
no
child
care
available
at
all.
D
So
we
looked
at
at
our
options,
certainly
our
staffing
our
capacity
and
began
what
we're
now
calling
it
was
originally
called
saturday
school,
and
that
was
boarding.
D
So
now
we
call
it
summer
saturdays
and
we
are
open
from
7
30
in
the
morning
until
about
4
30
in
the
afternoon,
children
from
two
to
age,
eight
can
come
here
to
the
children's
center
and
we
provide
care
for
those
kids
whose
parents
are
working
on
saturdays
and
it
was
originally
thought
that
it
would
be
mostly
cleaning
service
kinds
of
people
who
are
going
in
and
turning
over
villas
and
turning
over
homes
that
are
our
rentals
and
so
forth.
D
But
what
we
found
is
we
have
parents
in
not
just
that
industry,
but
in
restaurants
and
in
salons
and
people
who
are
working
retail,
who
are
working
on
saturdays
and
so
we've
we've
come
to
find
that
it's
a
it
seems
to
be
a
critical
issue.
Although
we
are
not
running
at
capacity,
we
can
take
up
to
40
children
each
saturday
and
we
start
mid-april.
D
We
start
heritage
weekend
and
we
run
all
the
way
through
the
end
of
september,
so
we're
we're
still
open
and
ready
for
additional
children
for
folks
to
to
bring
their
kids.
We
provide
lunch.
We
provide
an
afternoon
snack
and
all
kinds
of
engaging
and
entertaining
opportunities
for
the
children,
so
I'm
hoping
that
if
anybody
out
there
is
interested,
you
can
certainly
reach
out
to
me
and
I'll
get
you
more
information,
but
the
children's
center.
Not
only
does
our
saturday
thing,
but
we
do
monday
through
friday,
6
30
a.m
to
6
p.m.
D
We
have
a
about
120
children
on
a
daily
basis,
age,
six
weeks,
which
were
one
of
the
few
child
care
centers
who
starts
in
infancy
all
the
way
through
age.
Eight,
our
summer
campers
this
year
have
spent
a
lot
of
time,
maintaining
that
their
their
math
and
literacy
skills
throughout
the
summer,
and
so
we're
we're
having
a
great
time
here
at
the
children's
center.
D
We
also
do
tuition
on
a
sliding
scale,
because
what
we
found
is
affordability
is
a
critical
piece
to
parents
being
able
to
have
child
care
and
work
in
our
community
at
a
reasonable
level.
It's
unfortunate
women
are
the
most
impacted
by
the
lack
of
child
care
because
they're,
the
ones
that
are
generally
the
caregivers
and
so
they're
the
ones
having
to
make
the
decision
can
they
work
and
afford
child
care
all
at
the
same
time.
D
We
have
a
system
whereby
we
measure
the
developmental
skills,
beginning
in
infancy
all
the
way
through
when
they
graduate
as
five-year-olds
ready
to
go
to
kindergarten
and
our
graduates
mastered,
mastered
96.8
of
the
kindergarten
readiness
skills,
so
our
kids
are
ready
to
move
on
to
kindergarten
and
be
successful,
not
just
in
kindergarten
but
through
their
academic
careers.
D
I
want
to
take
60
seconds
here
and,
if
I
can,
if
you'll
let
me
share
my
screen,
I
want
to
show
you
just
a
little
bit
and
leave
you
with
a
big
smile
today.
This
is
saturday
school
and
I'm
hoping
you
can
see
it.
We
have
a
great
time.
A
D
We
love
volunteers,
we
absolutely
do.
We
have
a.
We
do
background
checks
on
all
our
volunteers,
so
there's
a
little
paperwork
to
get
started,
but
we
love
having
people
come
in
to
read
to
our
children
to
play
with
our
children.
I
have
a
couple
people
who
tell
me
they
miss
their
grandchildren,
far
away,
and
so
they
come
in
and
they
rock
babies
for
a
couple
hours
they
run
around
on
the
playground.
D
A
You
mentioned
the
the
sliding
scale
for
the
the
cost
and
michael
is
asking
if
you
could
share
a
little
bit
about
what
that
sliding
scale
is.
D
Sure
so
we
have
what
we
call
a
rack
rate,
how
much
we
charge
weekly
for
children
and
then
based
on
family
income
and
family
size.
We
can
slide
that
by
30,
so
everybody
pays
something
different
depending
on
their
own
family
situation,
but
it's
still
affordable
for
an
infant.
Our
top
rate
is
158
dollars,
which
is
pretty
much
the
lowest.
I've
been
able
to
find
in
our
community
for
an
infant,
and
that
includes
breakfast
lunch
afternoon.
Snack
and
all
their
activities.
A
D
Oh,
unfortunately,
the
children's
center
suffers
from
the
same
staffing
issues
that
so
many
of
our
local
businesses
do.
We
can
accommodate
up
to
200
if
we're
fully
staffed,
200
children
right
now
we're
maximum
capacity
based
on
staffing
at
120,
and
so
I
do
have
a
wait
list
of
about
60
children.
Unfortunately-
and
it's
really
interesting
because
about
20
of
those
children
have
yet
to
be
born,
mothers
realize
that
they
need
to
as
soon
as
they
find
out
they're
pregnant,
get
on
wait
lists
for
child
care,
because
it's
such
a
critical
issue
in
our
community.
A
All
right
jody,
while
we
were
talking
one
of
your
terrific
staffers,
has
sent
the
link
to
the
video,
and
so
so
kelly
has
posted
posted
that
as
well
last
question
we
have
for
you
today
is
coming
from
trish
and
trish
is
asking:
what's
the
ratio
of
instructors
to
infants.
D
So
for
infants
it's
one
to
five
and
then
it
grows
from
there
one-year-olds
it's
one
to
six
two-year-olds.
We
follow
the
dss
standards
and
when
we're
fully
staffed,
we
follow
abc
quality
standards.
So
two-year-olds
it's
one
to
eight
three-year-olds,
one
to
twelve
and
four-year-olds
one
to
17..
D
We
also
partner
with
the
state
of
south
carolina
in
their
4k
program,
which
is
a
tuition
paid
program
by
the
state
of
south
carolina
for
pre-k
and
we're
also
one
of
the
abc
tuition,
voucher
partners,
so
families
that
qualify
the
state
can
pay
some
or
all
of
their
tuition
on
a
on
a
weekly
basis.
So
we
try
and
reach
out
to
as
many
partners
in
our
community
as
possible.
A
Jody
I
wanted
to
share
with
you.
One
of
my
co-workers
was
recently
saying
that
what
a
great
job
you
do
and
the
entire
staff
does
and-
and
she
just
doesn't
really
know
how
you're
able
to
do
what
you
do.
But
I
just
said
it's
a
terrific
experience
for
her
son.
D
A
Jody
you're
well
known
throughout
the
region,
but
I
just
want
to
to
leave
people
knowing
if
they
don't
know
you
about
your
23
years,
you
served
as
president
of
the
local
junior
achievement
back
in
ohio
before
you
came
here.
A
Your
secondary
teaching
license
and
just
a
number
of
other
things
that
were
such
great
experience
that
you
brought
with
you
to
hilton
head
island
and
to
the
children's
center
and
we're
grateful
to
you.
We're
grateful
to
all
of
your
staff
for
what
you
do
and
we'll
continue
to
help
in
any
way
that
we
can.
