SC Ready Standardized Testing
As state standardized testing is quickly approaching we wanted to make parents aware as early as possible of the dates. Students tend to test better in their normal environment with their class or regular small group verses taking make up tests. With the early notice, we hope to avoid student absences due to travel plans or scheduling student appointments during the following dates.
Reading Section A - 5/13/25
Reading Section B - 5/14/25
Writing - 5/16/25
Math - 5/20/25
Science (4th grade only) - 5/22/25

The 9th Annual Running Hawaiian 5K
The Running Hawaiian 5K will be held on Saturday, May 10 at the North Myrtle Beach Sports Complex. This is the 9th year for this event and it’s a great time for everyone who participates. This is a run or walk event. You can register online at https://runsignup.com/Race/SC/NorthMyrtleBeach/TheRunningHawaiian. Registration is $30.00 per person. Proceeds from this event will fund the "Aidan Keahi Mendoza Scholarship" presented to a student at Socastee High School. Price for the race will increase on April 20 so sign up before that date.
This race is in memory of Keahi Mendoza, a member of the Class of 2017 and captain of the Cross Country and Track & Field teams at Socastee High School. He had a burning spirit and a passion for athletics. On December 26, 2016 he lost his life in a surfing accident. This is always a great event for everyone to come together as a Socastee family outside of the school to support a good cause.
We look forward to seeing everyone at the race!
