What an unforgettable day at WPES! Our school was honored to be part of the History Rocks Tour, celebrating the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States. During this incredible event, we also shared the exciting news that WPES is officially a Leader in Me Lighthouse School, a milestone moment for our students and staff. Making the celebration even more special, we announced this achievement during the ceremony attended by U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon and South Carolina Superintendent of Education Ellen Weaver. What a powerful and meaningful way to celebrate leadership, history, and the amazing work happening at WPES!


Our Student Lighthouse Leaders represented WPES in Columbia as our school was recognized at the State House with Governor Henry McMaster as a Blue Ribbon School!
We are so proud of our students and staff for their hard work and dedication.

Updated Details about eLearning:
As a reminder, days that are classified as eLearning are separate from inclement weather days. eLearning Days are not required to be made up at the end of the school year. Anderson One knows that the vast majority of our students and teachers are without power and internet access. As such, ample time will be given to complete all assignments for eLearning Days. Please understand we have identified Monday, September 30 as an eLearning Day to allow for flexibility in making up the missed day of school.
Due to power outages and damages, Anderson School District One will have an eLearning Day on Monday, September 30. If you do not have access to power or internet, do not worry. Students have 5 days to complete eLearning work. Stay safe, everyone!

Due to the anticipated weather impact from Hurricane Helene, Anderson School District One will have an eLearning Day on Friday, September 27.

Anderson School District One is continuing to monitor the weather forecast for Thursday evening and Friday morning. We are in communication with Anderson County Emergency Management and The National Weather Service. We are also in communication with the other districts in Anderson County, and as we gather more information, we will make an announcement regarding any changes to the schedule this week.

Congratulations to Anna Rhett Allen, teacher at West Pelzer Elementary! Anderson School District One Induction Teacher of the Year 2024-2025
