SCDA holds First Round of Industry Tours for 8th Graders 

The Stephens County Development Authority (SCDA) held its first round of industry tours for 8th graders in the 2025-26 school year on Wednesday, October 1, says Brittany Ivey, President and CEO of the Stephens County Development Authority.

Ivey said these tours are an effort by the Stephens County Development Authority to educate students about local manufacturing industries and the careers available in them.

The Stephens County Development Authority’s mission is to make sure that students are enrolled in a college or university, enlisted in the military, or employed with a company upon graduation from high school.
