Sumter County School Districts

• SUMTER 02

  
  

  Sumter School District was formed on July 1, 2011 by consolidating Sumter School Districts Two and 17. Mr. Randolph D. Bynum, Sr. serves as the district鈥檚 first superintendent. Sumter School District enrolls more than 17,000 students in grades preschool through 12 and employs over 3,000 staff members. The district includes 16 elementary schools, seven middle schools, three high schools, two alternative learning programs, and the Early Head Start program. The International Baccalaureate Diploma and Middle Years programs are available at Sumter High School and Bates Middle School, respectively. All of the district鈥檚 schools are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and by the State Department of Education. A wide range of educational opportunities are offered to students. All elementary children receive advanced training in technology in addition to fundamental instruction in reading, science, social studies, language arts, health and physical education. The academic program at the middle schools is exploratory in which students may schedule a variety of courses. In addition to the required courses, electives are offered in vocational programs, m探花视频ic, home economics, art, band, and more. With the advice of parents, teachers, and counselors, a carefully planned proposal for a high school program is developed to reflect future needs and interests of each eighth grade student. The district鈥檚 three high schools operate on a 4X4 block schedule that gives students the opportunity to earn more credits while in high school. The high school curriculum not only challenges students who go on to college, but also provides job-ready skills to those who enter the work force after graduation through its varied vocational courses and its partnership with the Sumter County Career Center. High school students have the opportunity to take advanced courses in addition to college level courses through Central Carolina Technical College and USC Sumter. Students at all grade levels can also take advantage of a wide range of extracurricular activities that enhance their learning environment.
