Soldier to Soldier- S2S

Our inaugural S2S Program at Spring Garden High School (K-12) is currently being established by Mrs. Jenna McKinney King (7-12 Guidance Counselor) and Ms. Erin Edge (Pre-K-6 Guidance Counselor), along with the help of additional stakeholders and Cherokee County Board of Education employees. Spring Garden is excited to become a supporter of Purple Star Military families. Stay tuned to this page for more S2S information! For help or more information, please contact Mrs. Jenna McKinney King (jking@cherokeek12.org) or Ms. Erin Edge (eedge@cherokeek12.org).

My name is Andrew Miller.  I am honored to co-sponsor the ES2S chapter here at Spring Garden High School!  I am a US Army veteran.  Here at Spring Garden, you can find me in the AG Classroom supporting my AG and FFA students.  This is my 7th year here at Spring Garden.  My wife Carly also works at Spring Garden and teaches English and History.  Here at Spring Garden, our S2S commitment is that every student feels welcome and knows that we on the S2S committee are here to help you in any way.

Hi, My name is Tony Benefield, and I’m honored to be an SLO with Mr. Miller this year!  Like Mr. Miller, I am also a US Army Veteran.  This is my 21st year teaching and 17th year at Spring Garden School.  I am honored to help new students at Spring Garden become familiar with our school and look forward to mentoring and connecting with them whenever they need me.
