Board Members and Christi Heaton

Congratulations to Christi Heaton, Berkeley County Schools’ Champion of Education!

With 35 years of service, Mrs. Heaton has been a steadfast advocate for students, staff, and school counseling programs across Berkeley County.

Mrs. Heaton is a true role model, supporting and empowering school counselors while ensuring BCS meets and exceeds state standards for school counseling. Her passion, attention to detail, and organizational skills have been instrumental in building the strong, comprehensive school counseling program we’re proud to have today.

Thank you, Mrs. Heaton, for your remarkable dedication and for championing the future of education in Berkeley County. We are so grateful for all you’ve done, enjoy your retirement!
