📱 Revised Personal Electronic Device Policy: Beginning January 2025 📱
Under a new South Carolina policy, schools are required to limit students' access to cell phones and other personal devices during the school day. The School District of Pickens County has adopted a revised Personal Electronic Device Policy to comply with state law (Budget Proviso 1.103).
✔️Devices must be silenced and stored in lockers, backpacks, or other designated areas throughout the instructional time.
✔️Devices include but are not limited to, cell phones, smart watches, tablets, and gaming devices.
We encourage parents to discuss this policy with their children and support its implementation when we return in January. Thank you for partnering with us as we implement this required policy.
Please visit this site for detailed information [www.pickens.k12.sc.us/page/sdpc-cell-phone-policy].

College Application Day at LHS was quite an event! Watching our Red Devils take this major step toward their futures was truly inspiring! 🌟 The room was filled with determination as seniors crafted their college essays, reviewed applications, and supported each other through this milestone moment. From future engineers to artists, athletes to entrepreneurs - these students are dreaming big and putting in the work to make those dreams reality!
Major props to our incredible guidance team who transformed the office into application central, complete with festive decorations, expert support, and all the resources our seniors needed for success. The energy was electric as each student proudly held up their "College Application Day" pennant, marking the beginning of their next chapter. 🎓❤️
