We would like to give a special thank you to our students from Howard University who spent the week with us as part of the Alternative Spring Break program!

While many students spend their spring break relaxing, these incredible scholars chose to give up their break to serve others through community service. Throughout the week, they supported our teachers in classrooms, worked with students, and even provided one-on-one mentoring to help encourage and uplift our learners.

Our students had the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, hear words of encouragement, and see firsthand what it looks like to pursue excellence in education. Their presence truly inspired our students to keep pushing, keep learning, and keep dreaming big.

Thank you for investing your time, energy, and hearts into our school community. Your impact will not be forgotten! 💙

Our North Aiken Elementary Dance Team had an amazing opportunity last Thursday as they participated in the Dance Immersion Program at Aiken High School! Our students had a wonderful time learning new dance techniques, building confidence, and collaborating with other students. Experiences like this allow our students to grow their skills, express themselves through movement, and see what opportunities await them in the future. A big thank you to the team at Aiken High for hosting such a great experience for our dancers! We are proud of our students for representing North Aiken so well. #NorthAikenPride #FutureDancers #StudentOpportunities #InTheDen

North Aiken showed up in a BIG way! Our students participated in the Special Olympics this past Friday at Citizens Park in Aiken, SC, and we couldn’t be more proud! They were sent off in true North Aiken style with a parade full of cheers and encouragement. The athletes had a wonderful time competing, celebrating, and representing our school community. The Area 15 Spring Games bring together athletes from across Aiken and surrounding counties to participate in track and field events and celebrate their abilities and accomplishments.  Way to go, students! Your courage, determination, and sportsmanship made the day unforgettable. 💙💛 #NorthAikenPride #SpecialOlympics #GoForGold #HouseStrong

Aiken County Public Schools Mourns the Loss of Assistant Superintendent Julie Revelle

Aiken County Public Schools is deeply saddened to share news of the passing of Julie Revelle, Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Schools.

Julie dedicated her life to education and to the students, families, and educators of Aiken County. Throughout a decades-long career with our district, she has served as an English Language Arts teacher at Kennedy Middle School, Assistant Principal at North Aiken Elementary School, and Principal of Redcliffe Elementary School. In 2018, she joined the district’s Executive Leadership Team as an Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Schools, supporting principals and overseeing the instructional and operational work of many of the district’s elementary schools.

Throughout her career, Julie was known as a thoughtful leader and passionate advocate for students. She worked closely with school leaders and teachers across the district, offering guidance, encouragement, and support for the important work taking place in classrooms each day.

Those who worked alongside Julie will remember her not only for her dedication to education, but also for her kind and gentle spirit. She cared deeply about the people she served and supported throughout her career and took great pride in her family, including her husband, David, their daughter Beth, and grandchildren.

The loss of such a respected leader and colleague is deeply felt across the Aiken County Public Schools community. Support services are being made available for staff and school leaders as they process this loss.

Out of respect for Julie’s family, we ask that the community honor their request for privacy during this difficult time.

Aiken County Public Schools extends heartfelt condolences to Julie’s family, friends, and colleagues. Her dedication to students and educators will leave a lasting impact on our schools and the many lives she touched throughout her career.

Yesterday our 5th grade students at North Aiken Elementary traveled to the Savannah River Site (SRS) for an exciting STEP Field Trip experience! Students participated in engaging indoor and outdoor science investigations. They had the opportunity to take a closer look at wildlife native to South Carolina and enjoyed a variety of hands-on activities led by the amazing SRS staff. We would like to extend a special thank you to Ms. Taylor Rice for being an awesome guide and for providing our students with such a meaningful and educational opportunity. Our Bears had an incredible time learning and exploring! 🐻💙💛

Today, North Aiken Elementary School proudly celebrated Black History! Throughout the month of February, our students and teachers have been learning about HBCUs and the Divine Nine, exploring their rich history, traditions, and impact. Our celebration continued today with a wonderful student-led program featuring our North Aiken Dance Team, Chorus, student recitations, and special performances. Our students did an amazing job showcasing their talents and honoring Black history. We were thrilled to welcome our community members, district leaders, parents, and supporters into the building to share in this meaningful celebration. Our hallways have truly come to life this month, filled with photographs, facts, and displays highlighting HBCUs. Students were especially excited to see familiar faces of staff and community members who attended these institutions and continue to make a difference and achieve success. It was truly a joyful and inspiring day at North Aiken Elementary! 🖤💛❤️💚

Please make any necessary arrangements for your child's early dismissal. Elementary school student after school care through Quest Zone is available.

Students receiving transportation services on half-day schedules, such as Early Learning Special Education students, will not be provided school bus transportation on Early Dismissal Days as buses will be unable to make mid-day routes.
