Due to the inclement weather issues caused by Hurricane Ian and the National Weather Service's predictions of high wind speeds with gusts of over 45 mph, Spartanburg School District Three schools and offices will have an eLearning day on Friday, September 30.

All afterschool activities, including Boys and Girls club and athletics, have been canceled.

Your students' school will be in touch with you about eLearning assignments.

According to SCDOT, there will be road resurfacing that will affect several roads in our District, beginning on October 1. This includes Clifton Glendale Road, from the traffic circle to Highway 176, which will be down to one lane for an expected 6-8 weeks. This will impact both car and bus riders on the afternoon commutes. Please expect road construction delays beginning next week.
