As our community heads to the polls this Election Day, we want to take a moment to thank three outgoing members of the Rock Hill Schools Board of Trustees.

At our last Board meeting, we celebrated Lacy Daniel, Chairwoman Helena Miller and Pete Nosal for their years of service, leadership and commitment to our students, schools and community.

The celebration included a special student-created gift! ❤️ Olivia Granville, a Rock Hill High School senior and Level 3 Graphic Design student at the Applied Technology Center , designed and created three personalized plaques, making each one unique for the Board member being recognized.

We are grateful to Ms. Daniel, Ms. Miller and Mr. Nosal for their leadership, commitment to public education and service to our students, families and staff. We wish them all the best in their next chapters.

The three newly elected Board of Trustees members will be sworn in at our next board meeting on Tuesday, November 10. Applied Technology Center - Rock Hill, SC

It’s the little things that make a BIG difference! ❤️🎉

When your front office team takes time to sing Happy Birthday to students, you know there’s something special happening in that school!

These are the moments that make students feel seen, valued and loved. So proud of the incredible people in our schools who go above and beyond to make every child feel special! ❤️

What a night for football in Rock Hill! Friday, October 30, was about more than the game. It was a celebration of tradition, community, and the people who make our football programs special!

We were excited to welcome back Rock Hill Schools NFL alumni Tori Gurley and Gerald Dixon, who came out to show their support.

We also celebrated four individuals whose dedication has helped shape high school football in Rock Hill for generations:

Mr. Jerry Cordell – Over 45 years of service

Mr. S***t Dawkins – Over 40 years of service

Mr. David Peterson – 30 years of service

Mr. Rocky Dubard – Over 30 years of service

That's more than 145 YEARS of combined dedication to high school football in Rock Hill! Thank you for your commitment to our student-athletes and the lasting impact you've made on our football programs.

Now, it's PLAYOFF TIME!

Our teams are ready for the next chapter!

Rock Hill High School vs. Boiling Springs – Friday, November 6 at 7:30 PM

🎃👻 Tiny Trick-or-Treaters, BIG Halloween Magic! 🍬✨

Our 2nd Annual District Office Trick-or-Treat was a SPOOK-tacular success!

Nearly 200 of our littlest learners from the Central Child Development Center took a BIG field trip… all the way across the street! 🧡 And what a treat it was!

We can't thank our District Office teams enough for going above and beyond once again to turn our offices into a Halloween wonderland! From creative decorations and costumes to plenty of candy and smiles, you helped create a magical experience and special memories for our youngest students.
Sometimes the smallest moments make the biggest impressions. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who helped make this sweet tradition so special. We're already looking forward to year three! 🎃
