Hurricane Idalia is expected to bring high winds and several inches of rain to our area.
All students will be served breakfast and lunch today. Additionally, all students who normally attend Abbeville Career Center and Piedmont Technical College will not be sent this morning.
We will be in touch later on today in regards to any decisions pertaining to school tomorrow. Stay safe everyone!
Respectfully,
