Greer High Recognized as a Unified School

Congratulations to Ms. Reuland’s class and the Greer High PE Department on collaborating to help Greer High School become a Unified School! The Special Olympics recognized Greer High as a Unified School and presented them with a plaque based on last year's first successful Unified Sports season. Unified Sports brings together students with disabilities, and their general education peers, on an athletic team. Ms. Reuland’s class partnered with the PE Department to progress their skills, build relationships with their peers, set individualized goals, and prepare for the Special Olympics. The Greer High Athletic Department and Coach Smith also helped our Unified Sports team get official Nike uniforms so they could look their best on game days! The Greer team pictured below competed in basketball and soccer tournaments and even brought home a trophy! They look forward to their upcoming season and are excited to progress their skills even more! Go Jackets! #LiveUnified

Important Message from Dr. Royster and Greenville County Sheriff's Office

 

The Superintendent and Sheriff ask parents to monitor your child’s social media accounts closely, help control the spread of false threats and misinformation, and ensure effective reporting occurs. Having your child follow the See Something, Say Something protocols by reporting potential threats directly to the school or law enforcement will maximize the effective use of both school and law enforcement resources and ultimately create a safer environment for all students.  

We understand the tragedy in Winder, Georgia has created great concern among students, parents, educators and the community. After such a horrific incident, it is common to see an increase in reports of potential threats locally and across the nation. The District and the Sheriff’s Office continue to work closely to fully investigate all reports and diligently follow established safety protocols. In order to effectively utilize school district and law enforcement resources, we ask parents closely monitor their children’s social media accounts to ensure that students report concerns directly to the school or to law enforcement and not repost them on social media or share with classmates. The single most effective preventative tool regarding school safety is the See Something, Say Something protocol, which all schools in the district utilize. If your child sees or hears something that is concerning, they should say something to an adult or report it online using the See Something, Say Something icon on their Chromebook. Both the district and law enforcement are seeing the same messages shared repeatedly on social media, and often the same message is edited to replace the school name and then reshared again. When students or adults repost messages on social media and don’t report through the appropriate channels, it perpetuates fear and creates additional safety issues. It diverts resources from the school and law enforcement, complicates investigations, and makes it challenging to share accurate information with parents in a timely manner. Threats made towards schools, whether intended as a joke or not, are a crime in South Carolina and can result in serious legal consequences for students or adults.

Superintendent Royster shares, “The District, school administrators, and staff take all potential threats seriously and continue to work alongside law enforcement to fully investigate all reports. When addressing school safety across our district, it is critical to have a layered approach with multiple measures. We appreciate the Sheriff’s Office and other local law enforcement agencies working with us to ensure we have the most effective safety measures and protocols in place. We thank parents and the community for helping to address this issue.”

Sheriff Hobart Lewis assures the community, “We are fully committed to maintaining the safety and security of all students and faculty within Greenville County schools. Our School Resource Officers are present in every school, working diligently to ensure a safe learning environment. In light of recent nationwide threats, we remain vigilant in our duties and take all threats seriously, investigating each one to the fullest extent. We are grateful for the strong relationship and communication we have with the Greenville County School District, and we will continue working together to protect our schools and keep our children safe. Remember, if you see something, say something.”

 

The Chiefs of the following law enforcement agencies join us in the above efforts:

Chief Patrick Fortenberry, Fountain Inn Police Department

Chief Howie Thompson, Greenville Police Department

Chief Matt Hamby, Greer Police Department

Chief George Miller, Mauldin Police Department

Chief Michael Hanshaw, Simpsonville Police Department
