Cougar Cub Families,

In response to the closure of public schools by Governor Henry McMaster due to the spread of COVID-19, students in grades Pre-K through 12th grade were provided distance learning materials from March 16 - May 8, 2020. Documents have been placed on colletonsd.org and each of our school websites with information on how the distance learning material will be graded at each level (elementary, middle and high).

The school district has set deadlines for the delivery of completed distance learning packets to our schools, based on guidance from the South Carolina Department of Education.

Please be reminded that instructional packets are due May 8, 2020.

May 15, 2020 is the final day to turn in instructional packets.

As a reminder, teachers at all of our schools are available daily to provide feedback and assistance with our distance learning materials. As the school district has been instructed to provide learning opportunities for our students through the end of the school year, Colleton County School District has prepared additional distance learning materials on May 11.

May 11th material can be accessed by using these links:

Parents who prefer a pencil-and-paper version of this new material can contact their school’s principal to arrange a time to pick up physical copies.

Please scoll down to view the previously remleased Remote Learning links for your child(ren).

We thank you in advance, Cougar Cub Families, for your full cooperation during this time!

Please make sure you all stay healthy and safe!

You guys are truly PAWsome! 🐾

Important Information: Grab & Go Meals

CCSD will continue to provide meal deliveries services, and we will update our communities on any changes to our meal schedules through multiple information channels.

Beginning Wednesday, March 18, our school buses began transporting meals to Colleton County School District students along our regular bus routes. These no-cost, grab-and-go meals are available to any student. Each grab-and-go bag will contain breakfast and lunch items, so only one trip will need to be made each day.

Buses delivering food will begin their routes at 9 a.m., and most will have made their deliveries by 11 a.m. You can review the routes for updated estimated arrival times here.

Please allow a twenty-minute window for deliveries. As this is a new process for us, please be flexible and patient as we adjust schedules as needed.

Please use caution and watch out for students as they make their way to bus stop locations for these meal deliveries.

Food for students is also available by picking up a grab-and-go bag at the following locations from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Bells Elementary School (12088 Bells Highway, Ruffin SC)

Black Street Early Childhood Center (256 Smith Street, Walterboro SC)
