In response to the above announcement Congressman Jim Clyburn released the following statement: “At the request of officials and representatives of Denmark-Olar School District, I was pleased to work with USDA in support of their application. Schools are the anchors of our communities and provide the foundation our children need to secure a productive future.” Clyburn continued, “The state of disrepair in many of South Carolina’s rural schools has been well documented. When completed, this facility will be a state of the art investment in Bamberg County’s children.” The loan USDA is offering would be paid back over 40 years at 2.75 percent interest.
