Parents, tomorrow is the district's Digital Homework Practice Day. Students will bring the district chromebooks home and complete at least one assignment digitally. We are excited to take this next step to ensure all students have adequate wifi connectivity in the home. Make sure your student completes the feedback form and returns it to the school. Thank you!
ACSD parents, students, and staff, we just received a call from Jerome Singleton, Commissioner of the High School League, informing us that the Marion High School football team has a high number of players testing positive for COVID-19, hence the state championship game has been postponed until December 18, time and location to be determined. Therefore, we will not dismiss early tomorrow, Friday, December 4 and it will be a full academic day for everyone.
Dear ACSD community, I apologize for the cancelation of the food distribution that we advertised. As of 6:05 pm Monday night, we received an estimated time of arrival at 9am. At 9:17 am this morning I checked back in and was told “I am working with the distributor on ETA. That has been a tragic delay. Will update you as soon as I can.” I checked again at 10:01 and 11:25 and the answer was “they can’t locate the truck nor could give me an updated ETA. In communicating with law enforcement a decision was made to cancel today’s event and reschedule hopefully before Christmas. We were approaching school dismissals and shift changes at some local businesses and we did not want to create a safety issue with traffic. The rescheduled date will be announced via school messenger, radio, and our social media platforms.
Congratulations to Coach Brian Gamble and our Dixie High Varsity Cross Country team on winning the Class 1A Cross Country State Championship! Back to back!

Thank you to all of the Veterans who have served our nation. Freedom isn’t free and we appreciate the sacrifices you have made for all Americans.
Parents, there appears to be an issue with the PowerSchool app that gives a "Problem Syncing" error. To correct this, you must delete the app and reinstall it. It will ask for the district code, which is TNTW, and then you should be able to log back in. Contact David Myers at dmyers@acsdsc.org if you still have any questions or concerns.
Based on information from the National Weather Service and local emergency management, Abbeville County Schools will be closed Thursday, October 29th. This is out of an abundance of caution due to projected wind gusts that could affect our buses and could cause possible power outages. We will make this day up on Monday, February 22, 2021.
After a principals' meeting today, Diamond Hill Elementary principal, Todd Ramey, was given the unofficial title of iTECH Principal of the Semester. He decided to dress the part. Thanks for letting us have a little fun with that, Mr. Ramey!
Parents, an email was just sent out to the main guardian email address on file in PowerSchool regarding your child's instructional setting choice for the spring semester. There is a parent survey attached in the email that you need to complete for each child in your household. If you are unsure if your email address is on file in PowerSchool, please contact the PowerSchool clerk at your child's school and they will confirm. Thank you for your trust in ACSD as we do our best to put students first!

Just another reminder that it is census time! The U.S. Census, which is conducted every 10 years, directly impacts federal funding every year for schools and communities in South Carolina. This funding impacts special education, teacher training, technology, school lunch assistance, Head Start and after-school programs. According to the Count All Kids Campaign, more than two million young children nationally were missed in the 2010 census. If we undercount children in the 2020 census, South Carolina could miss out on funding for the programs our students depend on. If you haven't completed the census yet, please do so as soon as possible!
