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.
