Berkeley County School District will utilize the Teacher Workday/Inclement Weather Day on October 11 as a weather make-up, e-Learning Day for students, as designated in the BCSD Instructional Calendar. This adjustment is necessary due to the postponement of the first day of school from August 14 to August 15, following impacts of Tropical Storm Debby.

Today WVE celebrated International Dot Day, which encourages creativity and shows how one small dot can have a big impact on the world around us. Thank you, Ms. Bowers, for inspiring creativity in our students!

In Miss Chappell and Miss Toscano’s class, students have been learning about figurative language. To end the week, students came to school dressed as their favorite idiom. While figurative language isn’t literal their students did a GREAT job LITERALLY representing these fun expressions we hear every day. See if you can guess what idiom these students are dressed as!
Our students and staffulty are having a blast with our 50s theme this year! Their enthusiasm and creativity make this celebration truly special. Check out Sofia’s fantastic work coordinating her outfit with the theme. If you have photos from last week's Fabulous 50s Friday, please email them to Principal Wyatt at wyatte@bcsdschools.net.
Students in Mrs. Turner’s Math Classes became ice-cream connoisseurs. They solved ten ice-cream themed challenges where they had to solve and fix incorrect ice cream orders, figure out order totals, and divide ice-cream treats to serve a given amount of people. What a fun way to practice multiplication and division strategies!
Today Ms. Montana's third graders explored the connection between speed, height, and distance! As part of their force and motion unit, they tested how gravity affects speed and distance. Their hypothesis was: "If we change the drop height of the Hot Wheel, the car will go faster and farther." After reviewing their data, they confirmed their hypothesis! The force of gravity (height) directly impacted the car's speed and distance.
We are excited to share that Dr. Eddings, Mrs. Ducker, Mr. Gallus, Mrs. Groves, Mr. Huff, and Mrs. Wyatt have successfully completed the South Carolina School Leadership Executive Institute (SLEI). This transformative 7-month journey with 22 leaders from across the state was an exceptional experience and one of the best professional development programs they’ve ever participated in, thanks to the outstanding Truist Leadership Institute. We’re eager to see the positive impact their new skills and insights will have on our entire school community. Congratulations to our outstanding team of leaders!
Ms. Blumer's class kicked off their first science experiment! The students had a blast making both quantitative and qualitative observations—with Skittles! It's amazing to see our young scientists in action, exploring the world around them one colorful experiment at a time.

For the upcoming school year, all BCSD schools will use Rooms as their direct communication tools for parents, teachers, athletic coaches, club advisors, etc. Because Rooms is located in the Berkeley County School District mobile app, this streamlines communication and minimizes the number of apps parents and guardians need for communication. If you haven't already, download the BCSD app today and turn on notifications so you never miss a message.
