on September 24, 2020 at 1:15 pm
Anderson, SC (FOX Carolina) - Deputies in Anderson County say they have arrested a suspect and charged him with murder following a shooting in Anderson earlier this month. Deputies say the shooting happened on September 3 just after midnight, along R Street near Palmetto Street in Anderson. Deputies say the now identified suspect, Lytavius Niree Richardson, fired multiple rounds into a home striking four people inside. One of the victims died as a result of the shooting, deputies say. We're told the other three suffered non-life threatening injuries. Later that day, the coroner identified the deceased as Nathan Gray, 26, of Anderson. Gray died at the scene and his death was ruled a homicide. The coroner added that two of the other victims were treated at the hospital and the third refused medical treatment. Richardson was arrested and charged with murder, three counts of attempted murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. On September 24, Richardson faced a bond court judge and was denied bond.

Another 870,000 Americans filed for unemployment benefits last week
on September 24, 2020 at 12:34 pm
<a href="https://www.cnn.com/business/us-economic-recovery-coronavirus" target="_blank">America's recovery</a> from the pandemic continues to slow. That was visible again in the <a href="https://www.dol.gov/ui/data.pdf" target="_blank">Labor Department's weekly jobless claims</a> report Thursday. Another 870,000 workers filed first-time claims for unemployment benefits on a seasonally adjusted basis. That was up very slightly from the previous week. Six months into this crisis, weekly claims are about four times higher than they were before businesses went into lockdown in March. Continued jobless claims -- counting workers who have filed for benefits for at least two consecutive weeks -- stood at 12.6 million on a seasonally adjusted basis, down a bit from the prior week. But Americans also filed for benefits under the government's other programs, such as the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program, which Congress created in the wake of the crisis to help those not eligible for regular jobless benefits, including the self-employed. Another 630,080 Americans filed for PUA benefits last week. This is a developing story. It will be updated
Education in a Pandemic: 'This year, everybody’s a first year teacher'
on September 24, 2020 at 11:18 am
UPSTATE, SC (FOX Carolina) There aren't any students in the library at Wren High School -- just librarian Tamara Cox. "The whole point of the library is to share materials and that’s, you know, a problem right now," Cox said. It's her 15th year working in education, but Cox said she was more nervous for this year's first day of school than any other. “It’s like starting all over again [and] rethinking how we do everything," she said. Teachers across the upstate agree. “It’s the year of the pencil. We erase a lot and we start over a lot and that’s OK,” said Woodruff Middle teacher Ashley Bennett. The seventh grade math teacher has been in the classroom for 15 years. Now she's learning how to handle a hybrid schedule. "Everything is more. Everything is difficult. Everything is hard and I say that not to be a whiner, but it’s the truth," Bennett said. Her students are in class just two days a week and she said her workload has tripled, but she said it's worth it. “I’m having to type up, ‘OK, this is what you’re going to do for me tomorrow,' or I’m sending text messages through a remind app," she said. The bright side for Bennett is clear, though. Up until this year, Spartanburg 4 did not have the funding to provide every student with a Chromebook. “That is tremendous. For some of our kids, this is the first digital device that they’ve had in their home," she said. "It was like Christmas when they got those Chromebooks.” In Dr. Clifford Lee’s Spanish classes at JL Mann High School, he says the trouble shooting is daily. “This year, everybody’s a first year teacher ... It’s probably at least an hour a day that I’m trying to find a better way to do something," Lee said. "The good thing is I’m successful a lot more than I’m not.” Although teaching online and in-person has obstacles, Lee, who serves on the directors board of the <a href="https://www.thescea.org/" target="_blank">South Carolina Education Association</a>, prefers the hybrid schedule over a normal one. "As someone who lives with two medically vulnerable people, that gives me severe apprehension," he said. "I would be very worried to do things like go over a kid’s shoulder and point things out or help a kid troubleshoot something because I won’t be able to keep my own distance.” Kindergarten teacher Keri Lewis said she's had to be much more creative this year with her students at Taylors Elementary. "The fact that we even get to be in person with our kiddos this year, we’re not taking it for granted," she said. Lewis' students are only in class two days a week, but she said that means more one-on-one time. "March was hard. I just remember crying for just days and it was just really survival mode," Lewis said. "Now it’s just the stress of ok, we have them for 14 hours a week in person. What can we do in those hours to make sure that they’re getting the most out of their instructional day?” But these teachers said the most exhausting part of the job happens outside of the classroom. "Parents are stressed. Parents are angry. Teachers are stressed. Teachers are angry. Administrators are stressed," Lewis said. Cox said she doesn't get on Facebook anymore after seeing comments attacking the efforts of educators. “It’s difficult when you pour so much time and energy into something and someone gives a negative comment about it," she said. "It’s very hurtful.” Bennett said she fears the workload combined with the backlash could mean fewer people seeking jobs in the classroom. "Are we going to lose out on a generation of fantastic teachers because of the negativity they’re seeing in the media? Because it is difficult?” Bennett said. "It’s an opportunity. It really is. Challenges are not a negative thing, but they’re an absolutely hard thing. Lee said he hopes people focus on the voices coming from people inside the classrooms: teachers and students. "The classroom’s always a laboratory. Right now the experiments we’re doing … there’s more unknowns this time around," he said. Lewis said she's taught kindergartners for 17 years, and she'll teach for four more decades if she's able. Cox agreed and said working in education is still what she loves to do, despite the new challenges. “I know that this is temporary and I’m willing to tough it out," she said.
