During SCREADY, students may not have ANY electronic or other device with them that can be used for communicating, timing, creating images, or storing images. These devices include, but are not limited to, cell phones, SMART watches, media players, electronic readers, headphones, stop watches, electronic translators, hand-held devices or any electronic imaging or photographic devices. Please leave all devices at home.
If you bring any electronic devices during testing, your phone, SMART watch, etc. will be turned off and collected prior to the testing session and returned to you after all testing is complete.

Students will begin SC READY Testing on Tuesday, April 30. SC READY is a standardized test taken by students in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. SC READY covers the areas of ELA, math, and science. Students will take the ELA Day 1 test on April 30, ELA Day 2 test on May 1, the math test on May 2, and our 4th grade students will complete the science test on May 7. Due to the importance of the test, we hope that you will make every effort to have your student at school, well rested, and focused.
We hope that you will support your student's future by explaining the significance of testing and by encouraging them to put forth their best effort. If you have any questions, please contact the school at 864-279-6500. Thank you for your support.
