So THIS just happened, and we couldn’t have done it without YOU. 🫵 Thanks so much to each and every one of you who purchased a buy-out, bought food, pie-ed a teacher, helped tape Malley to a wall, dressed on the day’s theme, ate at a Profit Share restaurant, attended Semi, or participated in any other Spirit Week events. Special shout out to that crew in the picture - our 2024-2025 StuCo members - who spent tireless hours organizing and carrying out this weeklong event. Through Rebuild Upstate, this money will change the lives of older and disadvantaged individuals in our community in desperate need of home repairs. Thank you and love you all! 💙💚 #pvhssw2025 #rebuildupstate

Tomorrow, Thursday, January 23, out of an abundance of caution, all schools in Anderson School District One will operate on a 2-hour delay.
We have been checking the roads throughout today, and unfortunately, we do have some icy spots on secondary road roads throughout the district. A delay allows all of us to wait until there is a little more daylight to navigate the roads in the morning. It will also help us to make sure the entrances to our schools are prepared to safely welcome our students back to school tomorrow.
School buses will arrive at bus stops approximately 2 hours after their normal pick-up times tomorrow morning.
The schedule is as follows:
Report to class: 9:50 - 10:00am
1st Block 10:00 - 10:55am
2nd Block 11:00 - 11:55am
Resume Normal Schedule 11:55am
Morning CTC will meet as follows…
Bus leaves at 9:45
CTC Tardy Bell at 10:30
CTC dismisses at 11:25
After consulting with Anderson County Emergency Management, there are several secondary roads and bridges in Anderson District One that are covered in snow and ice. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, Anderson School District One will have an eLearning Day on Wednesday, January 22, 2025.
According to most weather forecasts for tomorrow, the temperature will not rise above freezing until after lunch, so roads that are unsafe will remain so until the temperatures warm up on Wednesday afternoon. We want to err on the side of caution and make sure students and staff are safe tomorrow morning.
Check Google Classroom for assignments. Students will have 5 days to complete their eLearning assignments. Teachers will be available to answer questions from 9:00-10:30 a.m. and 1:30-3:00 p.m. via Seesaw messenger, Google Classroom, or email.
Please stay warm and safe tomorrow. Thank you so much for your flexibility!! Hopefully, we will see everyone back at school on Thursday!
