Square 1 Art
Each child has created a work of art that you will see soon. You'll be able to order their artwork on different items, such as keepsakes and special gifts! This is a fundraiser, and the proceeds will be used for our Art Program.
Operation Safe Outcomes
The Greenville County Sheriff's Office has launched Operation Safe Outcomes, a voluntary registry to help law enforcement respond more effectively to individuals' medical or developmental disabilities such as ADHD, Alzheimer's, Autism, Blindness, and Down Syndrome. Families and caregivers can submit important information to improve interactions with vulnerable individuals during emergencies. Learn more or register on the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office website.
Spirit Rock
The Spirit Rock is now open for decoration! This is a great way to share a special message for an REC student or staff member! You could do anything from Happy Birthday, Congratulations, Good Luck, Thank a Teacher, etc. You rent the rock for 24 hours. Paint it in the evening to be displayed the next day!
Parent Academy
Throughout the year, the Special Education Department will be holding training sessions for parents of students with disabilities. Topics, dates, and times can be found on the flyer.
