Why He Became an Educator

Dr. Jolley says, “I have always had a passion for helping others achieve their goals. I wanted to be a part of helping people find their success.

“The virtual environment [of this school] allows for true student equity and celebrates diversity. Working with students at Lowcountry Connections Academy allows me to help kids across the state achieve their dreams.”

“We’re able to offer an education that is uniquely differentiated for each student without the fear of bullying or safety concerns.”
