MCHS Important Back to School Information from Principal Ray Cooper:

Dear MCHS Parent/Guardian.

It is my pleasure to welcome you to Mid-Carolina High School for the 2024-2025 school year. As we plan for an exciting and new beginning, our focus will be to ensure that students are engaged in educational experiences that ensure success and life-long learning. 

All MCHS students, including Newberry County Career Center and PTC students with morning classes and Seniors with late arrival, will report to their Homeroom (HR) class the morning of Wednesday, August 7, 2024. This will allow us to take accurate enrollment counts, distribute final updated student schedules, distribute student laptops, and disseminate important beginning of the year information.  Please note that student schedules are subject to change prior to the first day of school as we work to balance class loads.  Once the school year starts, students will be given the opportunity to request a schedule change through their assigned guidance counselor through Friday, August 9th, 2024.   

Homeroom rosters will be posted in multiple locations around our school, and MC staff members will be present to direct students to their correct location on Wednesday, August 7. Doors will open for students to enter the building at 7:30 AM, and school will officially begin at 7:55 AM. The school day will end at 3:15 PM.   

Again, welcome back for the 2024-2025 school year. We look forward to working with each of you to ensure the academic success of our students, as well as the safety and well-beginning of our students, faculty/staff, families, and community. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the school at (803) 364-2134.
