Our school counselors would like to share a friendly reminder that Erin’s Law lessons will be taught to all K–8 students during the month of October. These lessons are part of required instruction across South Carolina. Please CLICK HERE to learn more about Erin’s Law and review the lesson information available on our school counseling webpage. 

What is SIC?

The School Improvement Council (SIC) is a group of parents, educators, students, and community members who work together to support the school and help identify ways to improve the educational experience for all students.

We Want Your Voice!

We are seeking parent/guardian representatives to serve on our School Improvement Council.

The only qualification to serve as a parent representative is that you must be the parent or legal guardian of a current student at our school.

Once all nominations have been received, the current SIC membership will review the nominations and select the parent representatives.

Following the selection of parent representatives, the SIC will also be looking for parents interested in serving in leadership roles as:

• Chair

• Co-Chair

• Secretary

No prior SIC experience is required. We are simply looking for parents who are willing to share their perspectives, collaborate with others, and help make our school the best it can be.

****YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE REPRESENTATIVE TO ATTEND MEETINGS - ALL PARENTS & COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE WELCOME TO ATTEND****

If you are interested in being considered, please complete the nomination form.

📚 Thursday, October 29th 5:00pm-7:00pm📚

We would love to have your family join us for this year’s Literacy Night. Our theme is Storybook Characters! 

If your business or organization is interested in participating in the Trunk or Treat this year, please complete this Google Form by October 9, 2026. 

If you would rather set up a table as a vendor, please email alfreeman@greenville.k12.sc.us
