MTSS Purpose – how we provide academic and behavioral support for every scholar
Attendance Competition – encouraging strong attendance through friendly, positive challenges
Bullying – reinforcing that bullying will not be tolerated and reminding scholars how to seek help
Dress Code – expectations for appropriate school attire
Acceptable Use Policy (Technology) – responsible use of devices and online platforms
We will continue to keep families informed and engaged as we work together to support our Tiger Scholars. Thank you for your ongoing partnership in helping us build a safe and successful learning environment.

Thank you to the SC Farm Bureau for visiting our middle school this week! They allowed our students to explore their interactive truck both inside and out! In the interior, students received a brief lesson on our state's commodities and built a model of soy beans. On the outside of the truck, students got to use VR headsets and match crops with their respective seeds.
We're excited to bring back the Homecoming Parade for 2025! This year, we're inviting all past Homecoming Courts to join in the festivities and be part of the parade. It’s a special opportunity to represent your class with pride and grace as we celebrate this beloved tradition. If you're interested in participating, please complete the form by scanning the QR code or visiting the link below. For any questions or more details, feel free to reach out to Jessica Kinard or Patty Dopson. Help us make this parade the best one yet and show your Tiger Pride!
