Important Information:

Early Dismissal Policy:
In accordance with school board policy, it is important to have your child remain in class until dismissal at 2:25 each day.  Teaching and learning continues until 2:25 p.m. Signing your child out early means he/she is missing essential concepts necessary for success in school.  Parents desiring to sign a student out early must do so before 2:00 p.m.  If you arrive on campus at or after 2:00 p.m. to pick up a student, please remain in the car rider line.  In fairness to others and in respect of our procedures, please be sure that you adhere to this policy.  Thank you for your continued support.
Class Interruptions:
 In the course of our daily lives, we all invariably forget things from time to time. Unfortunately, in an educational setting,
this is a problem larger than just the forgotten item. Interruption of a class to call a student not only interrupts that
student’s instruction, but the instruction for other students as well.
 As educators, we must comply with state (S.C. Statue 59-1-440)as well as district and school requirements for content covered. We cannot
afford to lose any instructional time in the course of a day. Please know we want to help your child in every way, but we
must strictly enforce our policy on class interruptions. If your son/daughter has an item delivered to the office, he/she will
be notified five minutes prior to the grade level lunch period to come pick it up. If it is after the lunch period when the item
is delivered, the child will be notified just prior to dismissal. It will be the student’s responsibility to come to the main office
to retrieve his/her article.
 Please help us make every moment count and take a little time at home to pack book bags, lunches and assemble needed
materials for the following day. Make sure if there is a deviation in the regular routine because of an appointment, the
student knows exactly what the change is and the resulting effect, i.e. different ride home, early dismissal, etc. Thank you
for your help, support and understanding as we strive to provide the appropriate learning atmosphere for your student


Flowers, Gift Policy
We need your assistance.  Flowers, balloons, and other such special event gifts will not be accepted by our school office for delivery to any student.  Please arrange to have these gifts sent to the student’s home.  We want to remind you of this as Valentine’s Day approaches.  Our office staff is limited and we do not want to interrupt instruction.

Apologies to Ridge View High School

Please pardon the re-post of High School Magnet Choices.  I accidentally posted the wrong logo for Ridge View High School on Friday's posting and wanted to send out a corrected posting:


It's High School Choice/Magnet time!
