Knighthawk Family,
I hope that all of our families are doing well and staying healthy! As you are most likely aware by now, Governor Henry McMaster has closed all South Carolina public schools for the remainder of the year. While I am very sad about this decision, I also know that it is the right decision for the health and safety of all of us. I will say that I am very proud of our students, staff, and parents for working together during these difficult times to provide a platform for learning.
Our district is currently working on an E-Learning plan for the remainder of the year. We will send this plan out very soon to all of our families. There will also be specific plans for pick-up of student materials, and the turning in books and uniforms, and items to close out the school year. Again, we will work with district leaders to devise specific plans for those items. We definitely would like to honor our 8th-grade students as they move on to high school and we will have a plan on how we will do that very soon.
I want to let all of our Knighthawk students know how much we miss them. I have always loved my job but I realize it more each day being without the students we care about so much. It's easy during these times to feel down and sad but I encourage all of our students to stay positive. Use this time to spend with family, try new things, and be kind to one another. I miss you all so much!!!
Grey Young, Principal
