To ensure a smooth start for the upcoming school year, Berkeley County School District requires all parents/legal guardians of returning students to complete an Online Returning Student Registration through the PowerSchool Parent Portal. Completing this process ensures that your student will receive his/her class placement.
This mandatory process includes providing two proofs of residency and is essential for reviewing and updating contact information, submitting required annual forms, and providing transportation details. If you have trouble uploading the documents you may bring them to the school.
Families needing assistance creating a PowerSchool Parent Portal account or have forgotten their username or password should contact the school at 843-899-5100.
For those without internet access or unable to register online, don't hesitate to contact the school to arrange a date and time to complete the registration in-person.

ATTENTION: Mark your calendars for July 8th! This is when Extended Day (formerly Cobra Care) registration will open!
