ACPSD Changes Due to Hurricane Helene - Due to the potential impact of Hurricane Helene, which is forecasted to make landfall in the Gulf of Mexico today and arrive in Aiken County late tomorrow afternoon, Aiken County Public Schools has several changes to the remainder of this school week to announce.
All after school activities tomorrow, Thursday, September 26, are cancelled. This includes athletics, arts, meetings planned for after school, and Quest Zone.
Friday, September 27, will be an e-learning day for all students. Teachers and staff will work remotely on Friday.
We recognize that several high schools have athletic events this week, including some with Homecoming. Some of those schools have moved their football games to this evening. Others are planning to host their games Friday night after the storm passes through. Should the weather necessitate a change to those plans, additional information will be shared by our high schools directly.
We apologize for the disruption that this change will cause to our students and families and, as always, appreciate the flexibility and cooperation of our school community.
Please stay tuned to local weather precautions and follow recommendations to keep your family safe.
Both the B Team and JV Football Games originally scheduled for Thursday, have been moved to tonight, Wednesday, 9/25. The B Team game will be held at Swansea High School and the JV Team will be held at Gray High School!
In Ms. Pabon's class, students had to choose a Latin American country, then they had to research information about the country and about a person who is from there or is a descendant from there , and their contribution to the United States. They then presented it all in English. 🤗🤗They did such a great job!
B-TEAM GAME UPDATE: The football game originally scheduled for Thursday has been moved to Wednesday at Swansea High School.
