Investing in Our Students. Supporting Our Schools. Building Possibilities.
We are incredibly grateful to SRP Federal Credit Union for investing in the future of our elementary students and educators through its new Investing in Education: Unlimited Possibilities initiative.
At the kickoff event held at the WOW! Club at, SRP Park in North Augusta, SRP Federal Credit Union announced that 83 schools across 10 CSRA counties will each receive $2,500 representing a remarkable $207,500 total investment in local elementary education.
This generous support gives our principals the flexibility to respond to the unique needs of their schools — whether that means providing instructional resources, creating hands-on learning experiences, supporting teachers, or offering enriching opportunities for students.
“This investment empowers our principals to respond directly to the unique needs of their schools and create meaningful opportunities through instructional resources, hands-on learning, and enrichment experiences," Dr. Charlene Heard, Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Schools said.
Partnerships like this remind us what is possible when our schools and community come together with a shared commitment to student success. We are proud to have SRP Federal Credit Union investing alongside us and helping create unlimited possibilities for our students!

AREA FIVE MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY INPUT MEETINGS
Aiken County Public Schools is seeking input on a possible master facilities plan for Area Five.
The plan could include constructing a middle school addition on the campus of the new Silver Bluff High School to serve students currently attending Jackson and New Ellenton middle schools. The District is also considering renovating and repurposing New Ellenton Middle School as an elementary school for students currently attending Greendale Elementary. School Board members previewed this plan during their August 25 meeting.
Community members are invited to attend one of two upcoming meetings to learn more and share their feedback:
Thursday, September 10, at 6 p.m.

Tuesday, September 15, at 6 p.m.

It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our beloved Media Assistant, Ann Poston, who passed away unexpectedly on July 8th. while traveling with family.
Ann was much more than a valued member of our staff—she was a cherished part of the Greendale Elementary family. Whether welcoming students into the media center, volunteering at school events, supporting our staff, or lending a helping hand wherever it was needed, Ann's kindness, generosity, and joyful spirit touched the lives of so many. She had a remarkable way of making every child and every adult feel seen, valued, and loved.
For many years, Ann faithfully served our school community. She was deeply involved in school life, from supporting our Sunshine Club and staff celebrations to volunteering at family events and community outreach efforts. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she even helped deliver meals to children throughout our community. Her servant's heart, unwavering dedication, and love for Greendale will leave a lasting legacy.
As we grieve this tremendous loss, our thoughts and prayers are with Ann's family, especially her daughter, Kristy, who is also a valued member of our Greendale family. We ask that you keep them in your prayers during this difficult time.
Our school counselors and support staff will be available to assist our teachers as they return to campus next week and students as they return as well.
Ann's absence will be deeply felt, but the compassion, laughter, and love she shared with our school community will never be forgotten. She was truly one of a kind!
