Our new STEM lab is up and running. This week our students are working on building a robot that can maneuver through a set obstacle course. Students have to collaborate with each other on the plan and design of this robot. They also have to effectively communicate this plan. They have to demonstrate how robot designs are used in the real world We are so proud of Mr. Williams and his students and we cannot wait to see the finished product. Go Cougars!

The August 13, 2024 Committee of the Whole School Board meeting was held @ 4:00 at the District Office Board Room located @ 500 Forest Circle, Walterboro, SC. At this board meeting Superintendent Jessica Williams recognized many different DO departments for all their hard work during the summer.

It was a great “2nd” first day of school @ Colleton County School District! We will continue to welcome our students back to class!
Colleton County School District will resume regular business hours on Tuesday, August 13, 2024. All buses will run their regular routes, except in flooded areas. All schools and offices will be open, and extra-curricular activities and athletics will resume as usual. Moreover, students should return their assigned Chromebooks and chargers to school. We look forward to welcoming back our faculty and students to campus.
Next, for families continuing to experience flooding concerns, the district will provide hub transports to the student’s assigned school for students who have been assigned a bus route and cannot get to their assigned bus stop. The elementary schools are Cottageville Elementary, Bells Elementary, and Hendersonville Elementary. If parents can safely drop their students off at the nearest elementary school in their attendance zone, we will be able to provide transportation to the students’ schools. Students will be transported back to the hub school at the end of the school day, and parents will need to pick them up for dismissal. Student pick-up and dismissal ridership times will be the same as our normal bus schedule. Thank you for your continued support as we bring our students back to school.
In closing, if you continue to experience issues related to the aftermath of Tropical Storm Debby, please contact the Office of Student Services at 843-782-4510 or email ehwilliams@colleton.k12.sc.us for additional support.
We are so excited to see our 4K-5K students at Black Street Early Childhood Center, Bells Elementary, Cottageville Elementary, & Hendersonville Elementary. Students with last names A - K will attend Tuesday, August 13th and students with last names L - Z will attend Wednesday, August 14th and Thursday, August 15th.
