HCSD Board of Trustees - Welcome Back!
Smiles for a Lifetime Dental Center
Hampton County School District
Due to the impending weather conditions, Hampton County Schools will be closed on Tuesday, August 6th and Wednesday, August 7th. There are many factors to consider including high winds and flooding that can prohibit the safe travel of school buses.
HCSD is continuing to monitor potential weather conditions associated with Tropical Storm Debby and is in frequent communication with Hampton County Emergency Management. The decision concerning Thursday and Friday will be with consideration for the conditions on Tuesday and Wednesday based on the information we have in a timeframe needed to keep students and employees safe districtwide. Our next update will be on Wednesday, August 7th.
We understand that you need as much advanced notice as possible regarding any decisions so you can plan accordingly. However, please know we don’t take the possibility of closing school lightly due to having to utilize make-up days during the intersession days or other breaks, especially since e-learning is not an option this week as device distribution is still taking place.
Please stay safe and continue to monitor your email, the district’s website, Parent Square, and social media channels for the latest communications, as well as local media outlets for weather conditions.
Hampton County School District is proud to partner with Smiles for a Lifetime Dental Center to provide dental services (cleaning and restorative work) for students who may not have a dental home. Dental work is provided at no out-of-pocket expense.
In cooperation with Smiles and Healthy Learners, we are able to provide transportation from your child's school to the Smiles Dental Center (which is located on the campus of Varnville Elementary School). After dental work has been completed, students will be transported back to the school.
