Charleston County School of the Arts Middle & High School

As we track the approaching winter weather and its potential impact on our community, we want to keep you informed about any updates.

At this time, Charleston County School District has not made any changes to normal operating procedures for next week, however, we will continue to assess the situation as new information becomes available and will let you know as soon as a decision is made.

While we don't have severe winter weather very often, we do want to make sure that you are connected to South Carolina Emergency Management Division and their resources for severe winter weather found at: https://www.scemd.org/prepare/types-of-disasters/severe-winter-weather/?fbclid=IwY2xjawH2K2NleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHWYBIwuFJsy8psQYvxSM5D1GUMFB4-2SJ_a8x8qEd3wZWDQ_9F7BPpOX-g_aem_1YNbMGzzuXX8-Zbql1gAKA
