Welcome to Coach Etters Class!

Hello!

My name is Coach Etters, and I am proud to serve as an English teacher, Assistant Athletic Director, and JV volleyball coach at Ninety Six High School. This is my fourth year teaching at NSHS, and I feel very thankful to work with such wonderful students, teachers, and community members.

I currently teach English I, III, IV, and Read180. Each year, I make changes to my lessons to better fit the needs of my students. I enjoy trying new activities and teaching methods that help learning stay interesting. I believe my students do best when I guide them directly, but I also believe that learning responsibility and accountability are just as important as academics.

One special part of my class is the “Weekly Participation” grade. Each student begins the week with a 100 in the gradebook. They keep this grade by staying focused, respectful, and engaged in class. This system helps students practice responsibility while also earning an easy grade for positive behavior.

Outside the classroom, I coach JV Volleyball in the fall and serve as Assistant Athletic Director. These roles give me the chance to support students not only in sports but also in teamwork, leadership, and school pride.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me by email or through the school office.
