⚠️ JANUARY 26 UPDATE:
At this time, main roads are mostly safe for travel; however, many backroads remain treacherous in spots, particularly in shaded and rural areas. District leaders continue to stay in close communication with emergency preparedness officials and weather professionals as we monitor conditions throughout our communities.
As communicated last Friday, tomorrow (Tuesday, January 27) has been designated as an eLearning day. We are pleased to report that power is on at all schools, and our facilities and maintenance teams are actively working to prepare campuses and buildings for the safe return of students and staff when conditions allow.
As we move through Tuesday (Jan 27th), district leaders will continue assessing road conditions and updated forecasts in collaboration with our emergency and weather partners. We will provide updates on Tuesday should any decisions be made regarding plans for Wednesday.
Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and continued partnership. The safety of our students and staff remains our top priority as we thoughtfully balance safety with continuity of learning.

Dear Anderson 4 Families,
Due to the anticipated winter weather conditions and continued concerns related to freezing rain, sleet, and extremely cold temperatures, Anderson School District 4 will operate on eLearning Day for Monday Jan 26th and Tuesday Jan 27th
We continue to remain in regular communication with the National Weather Service and Anderson County Emergency Management, and we have worked closely with the other Anderson County school districts in making this decision. In addition to road conditions, forecasted temperatures are expected to be extremely cold, which can impact our ability to safely operate school buses, particularly during the early morning hours.
Here are resources and support for families:
https://www.emd.andersonsheriff.org/winterstorm
We also understand that winter weather can result in power outages or connectivity issues that may impact a student’s ability to complete assignments. Families experiencing these challenges should communicate with their school as needed. Flexibility will be provided, and students will not be penalized for circumstances beyond their control.
We appreciate your patience, flexibility, and continued partnership as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff. Updates regarding school operations for the remainder of the week will be communicated as conditions improve and more information becomes available.

The Riverside Singers who were selected to be a part of the 2026 SCACDA Middle School Honor Choir were unfortunately faced with a cancellation of their weekend event.
These students have worked hard on their music and we hate that the experience was cancelled for them- but in true Riverside spirit- it didn't stop them !
Thank you to Dr. Bernarducci and the CU Singers for hosting these select Riverside chorus students, allowing them to experience a college level choral rehearsal experience!
We celebrate these 12 (and 6 who are currently on the Beta Club trip!) for their accomplishment on such a historic year for Riverside Singers!
The Bulldogs travel to Seneca tonight!
Bulldog basketball split a pair of games last night at Palmetto. Our girls won big, but our boys had a tough time with the Mustangs. The Dogs are on the road again Thursday evening to take on the Seneca Bobcats.
