The School District of Pickens County (SDPC) will open on a two-hour delay on Thursday, January 20, 2022, due to the continued danger of ice on shaded areas and on secondary roads. The two-hour delay gives additional time for ice to melt off the roads and will improve visibility for drivers.
-- Morning 3K and 4K classes are canceled. PM classes operate on a normal schedule.
-- No Buses on Icy Roads
-- High school students (including Career Center) should check their Schoology messages for adjusted class times and bell schedules.
Wednesday, January 19, 2022 will be a Digital Learning Day for the School District of Pickens County due to the continued danger of icy roads.
Students will not attend school in-person.
While there are areas in our county that have improved, there are many shaded areas that continue to have noticeable ice and black ice on roads. Temperatures are expected to drop again tonight and are not predicted to rise above freezing until after 9:00 am. Even with a delay, transportation would have to occur on the roads prior to this time.
Tuesday, January 18, 2022 will be a Digital Learning Day for the School District of Pickens County due to icy roads. Students will not attend school in-person.
Temperatures are expected to drop into the teens tonight following the snow, sleet, freezing rain from yesterday. Noticeable ice and black ice on roads throughout the county is a serious concern tomorrow morning.
We will make a decision regarding school for Wednesday (January 19, 2022) on Tuesday evening.
Congratulations to Bobby Taylor on reaching 1000 points scored (as of 1/4/22). Head Coach Ben Touchberry presented the award to Bobby last night at our home game against West Oak. We are proud of Bobby and our Daniel Lions Basketball Team. Come out and watch them play next Tuesday at home vs Wren.
Congratulations to Head Coach Jeff Fruster on being named the Carolina Panthers High School Coach of the Year!
