Re: EliSibility to serve on Jasper County School Board and qualifications
as an elector-Ms. Alina Hamilton-Clark
The following is a formal complaint regarding Ms. Alina Hamilton-Clark's eligibility to serve on Jasper County School
Board and the ACE Board.
Based on the following information detailed below, Ms. Alina Hamilton-Clarfs address has been confirmed with the
Beaufort County School District and the South Carolina High School League, which precludes
her from serving on either
board. She has clearly established her residence in Beaufort County, as evidenced by the 2014-2015 Hilton Head High
School Football Roster (exhibit
1)
On luly t7,2074, electricity service was established at 112 Union Cemetery Rd, Apt 321, Hilton Head, SC, for Mr. Darrin
J. Clark.
According to the SC High School League By{aws
