    AdvancED Parent Survey

    Our school is embarking on the continuous improvement process that will lead to the renewal of our AdvancED accreditation. To begin reflecting on where we are as a school, we would greatly appreciate it if you would complete the Climate and Culture survey for your child’s school. This data will help us reflect on where we have strengths and on areas that we may need to improve upon as a school. The survey is anonymous. It can be completed November 5th through November 16th. Please be sure to double check that you have selected the proper school from the drop down menu. If you have children in multiple schools, you may complete a survey for each school, just be sure to select the proper school in the drop down menu. If you need assistance completing the survey, please call the school at 803-735-3435 to schedule an appointment. 

    Thank you for being committed to our process for continuous improvement.

    There is a nurse at the school daily; however if the nurse is not available, trained staff will handle medication distribution and any emergency that arises. If your child becomes ill while at school, the student needs to go to the nurse’s office to be checked. We will call you to come pick him/her up if necessary.

Your child’s healthcare provider can help you determine if he/she needs further immunizations.
