What is J.O.Y. ?

J.O.Y. Stands For – Jesus First, Others Second, Yourself Last. The Pawleys Island J.O.Y. School provides an important bridge for children during the summer months to maintain progress from the school and stimulate a positive social environment to engage with other kids. Our goal is to maintain, and where possible, to extend the basic academic skills for students. The school is founded on love, and free to students as of today due to those who love enough to serve and give.
