News/Reminders:
Drop-Offs and Pick-ups ππ«π»
Parents- Please do not drive through the staff lot in the morning and also please do not drop off students in the parking lot. Staff members are driving into work in the morning and need to park in the lot to get in the building in time to greet students. Of the utmost importance is school safety- Students walking between moving cars in the lot poses a danger to students.
Also, please remember that students should not be dropped off and left unattended prior to 7:30am as we do not have staff supervision prior to this time.
After consulting with the Aiken County Sheriffβs Office and to help ensure the safety of all students and improve traffic flow, we ask that families who choose to drop off or pick up students along Coal Creek Drive park above the intersection of Coal Creek and Stone Pass and avoid using the intersection of Coal Creek and Weldon Way for turnarounds or vehicle entry and exit.

Important Information About School-Issued Computers π»
Help us teach your children/our students about the importance of internet safety. We have had a recent increase in students viewing inappropriate material or emailing peers about inappropriate topics on their school laptops both at school and in their homes before or after school hours. While the district does have filters on the searches, no filter can catch everything. Middle schoolers are very clever and figure out ways around the safety features. We highly encourage you to speak to your children about internet safety and further encourage you to monitor your child's computer use while at home.
