Parents of students in the School District of Newberry County are asked to complete one questionnaire per child to determine how they would like their child to return to school for the 2020-2021 school year. Option 1 allows parents the choice of sending their child to school on a Hybrid schedule – meeting in person 2 days per week and eLearning 3 days per week. Option 2 is for parents who wish to have their child participate in the Newberry ONE Institute for eLearning, a completely online option for a semester at a time.
The questionnaire can be found at https://bit.ly/SDNCLearningPref and must be submitted prior to midnight on July 28, 2020.
Registration for the 2020-2021 school year is now open. You will need your student's snapcode to register. Those will be given out on Monday, July 13th, during food pickup or you may call the school and provide a valid email address for us to send the snapcode to. You may also pick up the snapcode letter from the front office anytime Monday-Thursday, 8:00-4:00 pm.
