Greenville County is gearing up for the start of the new school year, with students heading back to class soon. While Anderson County students returned on August 1, Greenville County students will head back on Thursday, August 8, followed by Spartanburg students on August 12. As families prepare for the first day, it’s important to be aware of some key details that can help make the transition smoother.
Knowing when to drop off and pick up your child is crucial. Here are the school hours for **Greenville County** schools:
Another great advantage this year is that all students in Greenville County schools will have access to free breakfast thanks to the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). Most schools will also provide free lunch, allowing families to save on meal costs. However, some schools will require payments for lunch, so be sure to check if your child attends one of those schools.
Mark your calendars with these important dates:
It’s also time to start thinking about school supplies. Parents can find a basic list on the Greenville County Schools district website for different grade levels. Local programs and events are being organized that offer discounted or free supplies, so families can take advantage of those opportunities as well.
This school year, consider joining the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) or getting involved in school board meetings. The Greenville District PTA has monthly meetings where parents can participate and share ideas.
The first PTA meeting begins on September 12, and school board meetings occur regularly, offering parents a chance to voice their opinions and stay in the loop about school policies.
By keeping these points in mind, families can ensure a smooth start to the school year in Greenville County. Good luck to all students as they head back to school!
