OC Superintendent offers Prayers for Shooting Victims

In light of Wednesday afternoon’s shooting of two students and a teacher at Townville Elementary School in Anderson County, Oconee County Schools Superintendent Dr. Michael Thorsland is offering support and prayers. “The School District of Oconee County (SDOC) is terribly saddened by the events that took place in Townville. Individuals have reported that the alleged shooter was a student in our district last school year. While information is always provided to law enforcement as they investigate crimes, the district is unable to share confidential information about individual students with the general public or the media. The SDOC will continue to keep the entire Anderson 4 family in our prayers. We stand ready to provide assistance to our neighbors at Townville Elementary as they work through this tragic event.”
