WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Brookland-Cayce High School will induct its newest Hall of Fame member next month.
Lynn Connor Summer will be honored February 10 at the Annual Brookland-Cayce High School Education Foundation Hall of Fame Gala. The event will be held at Seawell’s in Columbia.
Summer, fondly known as the “BC Diva,” worked at Brookland-Cayce High School for more than two decades before her retirement in 2019. She was a health teacher and Teacher Cadet instructor at the time of her retirement, but she served in a number of other roles through the years at Brookland-Cayce High and elsewhere, among them substitute teacher, PE teacher, science lab technician, gymnastics and swim coach, and Brookland-Cayce cheerleading coach. She loved to remind students, “You are unique and valuable, therefore, you must act unique and valuable.”
The February 10 event will begin at 6 p.m. with a social hour, followed by the induction ceremony at 7. Tickets are $30 per person, $350 for a corporate-sponsored table and may be purchased on the foundation’s website, https://bchsfoundation.org/. Seawell’s is at 1125 Rosewood Drive.
The Brookland-Cayce High School Education Foundation supports the school’s students through scholarships and other activities.
