Tdap Vaccine Requirement for All 7th Graders
South Carolina law requires that all students entering the seventh grade receive one (1) dose of Tdap vaccine. Tdap vaccine protects children from three serious diseases: tetanus, diphtheria,and pertussis (often called whooping cough).
Students entering the seventh grade, who have not received the Tdap vaccine by the beginning of next school year (August
2024), will not be allowed to attend school until they have received the vaccine and provided proof to our school nurse.
If you have any questions, please call our school nurse at 864-355-8507.

WMS Named a School to Watch
For the first time in our history, Woodmont Middle School has been named a School to Watch by the National Forum Schools to Watch.
In South Carolina, there are currently 29 Schools to Watch, and nationally, there are just over 450 schools that have received this recognition. They are showcased throughout the state and the nation to promote best practices in education.
We are so proud to be a part of this group because our teachers and our students deserve this recognition.
