You can take our mascot, Splash, home for a weekend! He has had great adventures so far with some of our dolphin students. If you would like to host him for a weekend, see Mrs. Jungclaus in the office!

We would like to say thank you to our awesome PTO for their generous gifts and services provided to our students and families throughout the past year. Some of the wonderful things they accomplished last year: back to school gift cards for teachers, new playground equipment, a new sound system and TVs in the cafeteria, Spring Fling, Field Day, 5th grade celebration, and our Veteran's Day celebration. Thank you, PTO, for helping our students and teachers make a lasting impact on lives and education!

As part of the eight components of school health, School Nurses conduct periodic vision, dental, hearing, blood pressure,and other screenings as recommeded by SC DHEC, and as needed as part of the nurse's assessment during a health room visit. These screenings are important in early detection of hearing or vision difficulties that may impact teaching and learning. Many times a student is not even aware he/she is having difficulty seeing the board, reading, or hearing classroom instructions. Please contact your child's school nurse if you do not want your child screened.

Rice Creek Elementary, in partnership with our community, is a school where all students are cared for, respected, and provided a rigorous academic education in a professional learning environment that cultivates leaders for today and tomorrow.
