Our forward momentum is made possible by the dedication and diversity of the people guiding SCETV. We value the perspectives of our staff members, senior leadership, the ETV Commission and our Community Advisory Council. These groups contribute to the continued educational and cultural development of SC residents through listening, collaborating and serving.
