SC READY AND SCPASS - Beginning May 14 and running through June 11, all students in grades 3-8 will participate in SC statewide assessments. For more information about SC READY and SCPASS, including the dates our students are scheduled to take different portions of the tests, please read our parent letter (available in both English and Spanish), SC READY Assessment Brochure, and SCPASS Assessment Brochure.

WORLD LANGUAGE PROGRAM - Our German program will change in 2021-2022. Current German cohorts (from this year and last) will continue to receive language instruction through mathematics and German language instruction, and that will occur for 70 minutes per day. We will continue with this schedule in future years until those students have finished 5th grade.  

Instead of creating new cohorts each year, we will expand German language exposure to as many students as possible through our specials activities classes beginning in 2021-2022. We look forward to another exciting year of watching our students thrive and expand their knowledge of German language and culture. 

PANDEMIC EBT - Our Main Office has fielded questions about Pandemic EBT (P-EBT) cards over the past few weeks. P-EBT is an optional federal program designed to provide food benefits to children who have temporarily lost access to free or reduced-price meals at school due to school closures triggered by COVID-19. For the 2020-2021 school year, eligible children will receive a P-EBT benefit based on the number of days they attend school virtually each month. For more information about eligibility, Community Eligibility Provision schools, and other information, please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions document.
