"Once a Brave, Always a Brave"
Socastee Family!!
As most of you know, Atticus Hampton, 7 year old son of Coach Ben Hampton and Burgess Principal Catherine Hampton was diagnosed with Acute Leukemia a few weeks ago. BSN has worked with Coach Hampton to create a shirt to help show our support for Atticus as he battles this at MUSC. Your support will go a long way in helping his fight!
Please share on your social media with your parents, staff, and followers.
We preach at Socastee High School that we are all members of the same #OneTeam regardless the sport we play. Help us show support for the Hamptons in that same manner!!
