Welcome Elementary Summer Reading 

Reading brings a sweet reward! Grades K-2- Read or listen to 12 books. Grades 3-5- Read two chapter books or one chapter book and six picture books. Record the books you read on the reading log or any piece of paper and bring it to your teacher for school year 2026-2027 after summer (by September 1).  We will also honor the reading log published by Greenville County Public Library! 

We will celebrate summer readers with an ice cream treat! Questions? E-mail Ms. Albers, aealbers@greenville.k12.sc.us

SCREADY / SCPASS

SC Ready Testing Schedule

The South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Assessment (SC READY) program is a statewide assessment designed to evaluate students in grades 3–8 in English Language Arts (ELA) and mathematics, as well as science for 4th grade. These tests measure student understanding of the South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Standards taught in ELA, math, and science classes.

School starts at 7:45 am. Testing will begin promptly at 8:00 a.m. To provide the best possible testing environment, please ensure your child:

  • Arrives to school on time.
  • Gets plenty of sleep the night before.
  • Eats a healthy breakfast.

Please note: there will be no volunteers or visitors to the school on these testing days.

Electronic Parent Notes

Parent Electronic Note

Electronic Parent Notes
Our school is excited to offer electronic parent notes as an option to communicate with the school on the days your student is absent.   This may be a good option for you if you often forget to send in a sick note, or if your child loses parent notes easily.   Please go to the following link and fill out the information whenever your child is absent from school. Due to a change in attendance policy this year, parent notes are only accepted during the first 10 absences of the school year, and must be turned in within 3 days of the student returning to school.  If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Meghan Shroy at 864-355-3943.  

Thank you!
