As we prepare to welcome our youngest learners, this is a reminder that all 4K and 5K students will begin the school year on a staggered start schedule during the week of August 3, 2026.
The South Carolina Department of Education (SCDE) approved a waiver allowing school districts to implement a staggered start for eligible 4K and 5K students. This provides teachers with dedicated time to administer the required beginning-of-year assessments and ensure every child has a smooth and successful start to school.
❗️Please remember:
• Your child should attend school only on the one day and time they were assigned during the week of August 3.
• Your child's teacher or school administrator should have already contacted you with your assigned attendance date and time.
• Beginning Monday, August 10, 2026, all 4K and 5K students will attend school daily following their regular schedule.
If you have any questions about your child's assigned day or time, please contact your child's school.

We can't wait to welcome our youngest learners for an exciting school year in Clarendon County School District!

Please be reminded that MAP Testing will take place next week from Monday through Wednesday.
To help your child do their absolute best, please ensure they get a good night's sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and arrive at school on time each day. Thank you for your continued support and partnership in your child's education!
Best regards,
Dr. Rose H. Wilder Elementary
