Congratulations to Chloe Batten a freshman at East Columbus who was recently named Teen Miss Columbus County Agriculture Fair Pageant 2024! We are SUPER proud of her.
Poetry, Chorus and Dance students did an amazing job at the Columbus County Fair's Arts Performance day!
We want to remind you that Monday, October 14, is Parent-Teacher Conference Day. This is a great chance for you to meet with your child’s teacher and talk about how your child is doing in school.
There will be no school for students on this day, so we can focus on these important meetings.
Conferences will be held from 11:30 AM to 7:00 PM, so you can pick a time that works best for you. You can choose to meet in person or online, whichever is easier for you.
During the conference, you will learn about your child’s strengths, areas where they can improve, and how we can work together to help them. To set up your conference, please reach out to your child’s teacher.
Thank you for supporting your child’s learning!
See all the amazing k-12 art at the fair!!

Columbus County Schools will operate on a regular schedule on Wednesday, September 18th, with the following exceptions:
Acme Delco Elementary
East Columbus Jr. Sr. High
CCCA students who ride east-end buses
These schools and affected CCCA students will have a 2-hour delay. Staff at these locations will also be in a 2-hour delay.
If you believe travel conditions in your area are unsafe, please contact your principal in the morning. Our main concern is safety.
Due to ongoing flooding and the potential for hazardous travel conditions, Columbus County Schools will conduct Remote Instruction on Tuesday, September 17th, 2024. This applies to both students and staff. Schools will provide additional details regarding assignments and remote learning procedures. Students will be allowed to make up work missed during Remote Instruction. All extracurricular activities are canceled.
We understand that closing schools for in-person instruction is disruptive and that students benefit most from being in the classroom. However, the safety of our students, parents, and staff is our highest priority. Based on current reports and observed conditions, traveling to and from our campuses could be dangerous tomorrow, particularly in the areas hardest hit by the flooding.
We aim to resume in-person instruction on Wednesday, September 18th, provided conditions improve. We will keep you informed of any updates to this plan.
There was a strong turnout at the Community Feedback event for the new Eastern End K-8 school. Participants provided valuable input on space design, school spirit through logos and imagery, and site features.
Please see updated information from the Swamp Keepers.
