And just like peanut butter and jelly make for a familiar combo, so did Williams and Johnson.
âWe did a lot of stuff together,â Johnson said. âHe clowned on me and I clowned on him.â
When Johnson graduated from Clemson University, he returned to Orangeburg and worked as the wide receivers coach at Bethune-Bowman High School.
Williams worked there, too, as the defensive backs coach.
They coached together for a year before Johnson took another job.
Johnson said Williams has worked in the local school district since.
He was most recently Brookdale Elementary Schoolâs parent liaison and in the computer lab.
Orangeburg County School District 2021 seniors will once again have graduation ceremonies at their high school football fields with limited ticketing and seating to account for the coronavirus. At this time there are no venues that are really renting out any facilities due to COVID-19 and we are at the point now where we need to start preparing for graduation for this coming June, Ombudsman/Assistant to the Superintendent Dr. Jesse Washington told trustees during their Dec. 8 meeting.
Superintendent Dr. Shawn Foster said the district reached out to South Carolina State University about hosting a district-wide graduation event but due to COVID, the university is not renting out its facilities.
