Created by Beaufort High student body president Holland Perryman in response to her experiences as the first intern of the Pat Conroy Literary Center, DAYLO is now the largest student-founded organization at BHS, with more than 50 members. Using a book club model to engage in works celebrating diverse viewpoints and to learn and teach themes of social justice and inclusivity, DAYLO provides opportunities for student education and service, building a community of intellectually curious and empathetic readers dedicated to service learning and positive social change. DAYLO also fosters opportunities to improve literacy within our community, including read-alouds for elementary students and collaborations with the Conroy Center in hosting public conversations with authors representing diverse backgrounds.
