eLEARNING Day Announced for Monday, February 2
Thanks to our latest round of REAL snow, District 7 will hold an eLearning day on Monday February 2 All after school activities and events are also cancelled. We will be monitoring conditions to let you know a decision about Tuesday by early Monday afternoon.
It has been so fun to see our students enjoy the snow! After inviting you all to share your snow photos on our Facebook post yesterday, D7 families have posted nearly 400 photos in the comments of that post. Be sure to check it out to see everyone building snowmen, sledding, and just taking it all in! You will even spot teachers, principals and administrators and their families!
Thank you for your continued partnership and flexibility during this extended stretch of winter weather. Enjoy the snow, take care of one another, and stay safe!

After evaluating road conditions in our area again today, D7 will operate on a two-hour delay for Friday, January 30. Bus schedules and morning drop-off times will occur exactly two hours later than usual. This delay will help school buses, staff, parents, and student drivers travel more safely to school and will provide additional daylight to improve visibility on roadways.
Buses will not run on specific icy roads that continue to pose safety concerns. If your family’s route is impacted, you will be notified no later than 7 PM via a phone call, email, and text message from our D7 Transportation Team. If you are not contacted, your bus pickup location will be the same as usual. We will do our best to provide clear information on an alternate pickup location for roads buses will not travel. If your student has been assigned an alternate pickup location but cannot get to it, and you have no way to transport your child to school and plan to keep your child home tomorrow, you must notify your child’s school and the absence will be excused.
We understand the decision to send a student to school ultimately rests with each family. As always, the safety of our students and staff is our top priority.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support. We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!

District 7 will hold an eLearning Day tomorrow, Tuesday, January 27, due to continuing safety concerns from ice-covered roads and below freezing temperatures expected tonight. All afterschool athletic events and activities scheduled for Tuesday are also cancelled.
We will continue to monitor weather and road conditions across the district and keep our families, teachers and staff informed. As always, safety is our first priority.
If you haven’t yet seen the hundreds of “snow fun” photos shared by our D7 Family on social media yesterday, head over to our district Facebook post (https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1GqfrcPCB2/) to scroll through the comments! It is great to see everyone having such a good time.
Please stay safe and enjoy your day!

INCLEMENT WEATHER UPDATE: Monday, January 26 will be an eLearning Day
***All Weekend Activities Cancelled***
District 7 has been closely monitoring the forecast this week and taking important steps to get ready for the days ahead. The National Weather Service has issued an Ice Storm Warning beginning Saturday and continuing through Monday. As a result, ALL activities and field trips are cancelled for Saturday and Sunday, and District 7 will hold an eLearning Day on Monday, January 26. Below freezing temperatures are expected into next week, so we will continue to monitor conditions and communicate any additional updates.
Teachers have communicated instructions on eLearning assignments. If your student brought their Macbook home today, please be sure they fully charge it TONIGHT so they have full power heading into the weekend, in the event of power outages.
Additional information about District 7’s eLearning guidelines can be found here: https://spartanburg7.org/eLearning
Finally, we know our students were hoping for snow! While chances look slim at this point, students are never too old to put spoons under their pillows, wear PJs inside out, and flush ice cubes in hopes of bringing the white stuff. We hope everyone gets to enjoy some fun, and most of all we hope our entire D7 Family stays safe!
As always, thank you for your partnership and support!

100 facts about Carver. 100 affirmations. And a few 100-year-old educators? It's 100 Day!
District 7 schools and offices are closed today in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. As we pause to serve in our community and connect with one another by making this a "day on" rather than just a day off, we are heartened by Dr. King's wise reminder that "Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education."

Today the Wildcats presented a check of $5000 to Hope Center for Children. Funds were raised all fall semester by students and staff via a friendly Clemson/Carolina rivalry. The Hope Center direcly benefits members of the Carver community. Thanks to Mrs. Petty for teaching our students that giving is fun.
Help our Beta Club and Student Council FILL THE TRUCK as we celebrate MLK Day with service to our community!

Thank you to Spartanburg High School and Dr. McMillan for hosting our 8th graders as their transition to Vikings approaches. They heard a presentation about all that Spartanburg High School has to offer and how important it is to be successful in the 9th grade. Our students enjoyed touring the building they'll be at in the fall. WE ARE ALL VIKINGS!
