DHES Parents,
In 2022, the South Carolina General Assembly unanimously passed S.1103, otherwise known as the South Carolina Child ID law. As a result, Abbeville County School District has been given at-home child ID kits that will be coming home with each student this week.
These are inkless, at-home kits, stored by parents and guardians that never enter a database. This kit should take less than 2 minutes to complete and is designated to be stored solely by you as a parent or guardian in a cool, dry, and safe place at home.
These kits are to be STORED AT HOME and should only be given to law enforcement in case of an emergency.
Cue the confetti!

Good Morning to our DHE Families~
Thank you all for a great start to the school year! It has been exciting to see our Diamond Hill Elementary students back in school and watching our students SHINE!
Below are a few reminders about procedures during morning drop-off and afternoon pick up. Our goal is to keep everyone as safe and to move lines efficiently as possible. We appreciate your patience and cooperation!
In the mornings, please stay in your vehicle as you drop your child off in the car or bus loop. You may park and walk younger students (K-2) to the door, but please do not enter the building unless you have a need to visit the front office.
School issued tags are required to pick up ALL students.
Keep the car rider tag visible until your child has been loaded into the vehicle. School personnel (both calling students and loading students) during dismissal need to see the car rider tag.
In the car loop, please form two lines up to the merge sign. We understand that the curve in the car loop is a tight fit for many vehicles. Use your judgment in the curve, but then continue forming two lines between the curve and the road. This helps to move vehicles out of Lake Secession Road.
If you do not have a tag, please stop by the front office (prior to dismissal) to get a car tag. You can also call the school to have a tag sent home with your child. Students can be issued up to 3 tags. There is a charge for additional tags.
**If you need to exit your vehicle (morning or afternoon), then you need to park.**
Please share this information with those that drop off and pick up your child.
Thank you for your help in making “Back to School” such a great time of the year! We will be sharing information about Open House later today.
Thank you!
