Thrower was one of 200 students to spend with morning with 25 soldiers from Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 3rd Brigade Special Troops Battalion, 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, during a "Partners for Education" event at the Warrior Training Center on Fort Benning's Harmony Church. The 3rd BSTB and Blackmon Road Middle School participate in monthly partnership activities on Fort Benning and within Muscogee County as part of the "Partners in Education" program. According to the Columbus Chamber of Commerce, the Greater Columbus "Partners in Education" was established in 1987 as a joint venture of the Muscogee County School District and the Greater Columbus Chamber of Commerce. It's intended to improve education by "stimulating meaningful business and community involvement in public schools." Through partnership, "public and private school are now able to tap resources to meet the individual needs of each student body, provide excellent education programming, and recognize achievement."
