District 7 will operate on a two-hour delay on Monday, January 13.
Our safety team spent the day assessing road conditions, and found many icy patches persist on back roads. These conditions could create a safety risk for our buses, student drivers, and staff traveling in those areas. A two-hour delay will allow daylight to improve visibility and temperatures time to rise.
Two-Hour Delay Times:
A two-hour delay means everything shifts back two hours from its normal time. For example, if your bus normally arrives at 6:30 AM, it should arrive at approximately 8:30 AM. The tardy bell for each school will be exactly two hours later than that school’s tardy bell on a regular school day.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, as safety is always our top priority.


While we're waiting on the snow . . . Make sure your prepare to support our basketball teams at their theme nights beginning this upcoming week!



District 7 Announces eLearning Day for Friday, January 10, 2025
For the safety of our students and staff, Spartanburg School District 7 will hold an eLearning day on Friday, January 10. Additionally, all afterschool and weekend activities have been canceled.
The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch, with snow and sleet expected to impact our area beginning early Friday morning. Teachers will communicate details regarding e-Learning assignments during the school day today and additional information about District 7’s e-Learning guidelines can be found at at spartanburg7.org/eLearning.
Thank you for your understanding, as safety is always our top priority. We hope our D7 Family has the opportunity to enjoy some time in the snow. Stay safe and have fun!


Our wrestlers continue to grow and improve! Love to see the efforts last night!

Yesterday, our 5th cohort of students graduated from the Junior Citizens Academy with the City of Spartanburg Police Department. This program is phenomenal and exposes our students to many different aspects of local government and law enforcement. Over the semester they had experiences with the Fire Department, Police Chaplains, Forensics, SWAT, K-9 Unit, Judicial and the Courthouse, Real Time Crime and others. The program connects students with mentors and advocates who support them in the community. In their essay assignment, the students clearly saw how this program connects them to their future college and career plans. They also heard and excellent keynote from Entrepreneur and Mentor Scott McHam. Thank you to the City of Spartanburg Police Department for their excellent work in this program. #Carverisgoingforgreat

Our school is full of wonderful educators, and not just adults! Mr. Collins and Mr. Nchinda presented a great lesson on plot to Mrs. McCarter-Smith's 6th grade English class. They even had Principal Edwards participate in their activity and take their assessment. How did he do?
