Hello, Colleton County School District families,

Please visit your child(ren)'s school Monday through Thursday from 8:00 am- 4:00 pm this week or Monday-Tuesday next week.

Superintendent Jessica Williams bids farewell and have a great summer to SLP students at Forest Hills Elementary School. On Thursday, June 27, 2024! Hope everyone enjoyed the F.I.T. 2.0 Summer Learning Program! See you on August 5, 2024!!





Great things happened during Week 3 of our Elementary Summer Learning Program, F.I.T. 2.0 at Forest Hills Elementary. Intensive reading instruction, small group instruction, and many other fun activities were completed during this week.









Often times in life we forget to acknowledge the small things in life and I (Margaret Bright) really wanted to take a minute and acknowledge a co-worker that goes above and beyond to keep FHE clean and smelling amazing. Ms. Violet and the entire custodial staff are amazing and always make sure our classrooms are clean and smelling amazing. It may be just her "job" but I really appreciate the effort and hardwork she puts in doing her job to the best of her abilities without complaining or a frown. She is kind and has a great spirit and I am honored to have worked with her during summer school. I really wanted to take a minute and let you know that we have a lot of staff who are amazing and go the extra mile for our students.


Mark your calendars. Saturday, August 3, 2024, the "All In for Colleton" Back to School Bash will be held @ Colleton County High School (CCHS). Join Colleton County School District, University of SC-Salkehatchie, & the Original Six Foundation for a morning of food, fun, music, & STEM Activities. Children must be present to receive school supplies. We hope to see you there.



This week our school leadership teams are attending the Model Schools Conference to gain more knowledge in best practices, building community & capacity, hands on learning, reimagining & reinventing their schools & classrooms. We can't wait for the participants to return to their schools and implement what they learned.
