My family and I moved to SC a few years ago and we are thrilled our son is part of Gray. My son is thriving here, way better than any school he went to prior.

LOVE THIS SCHOOL!…read more This is the school both of my kids go to. It's a virtual, online public school. My kids are in 10th and 12th grade and are EXCELLING at this school. Their last "brick and mortar" school left much to be desired and I am so thankful we found SCCA. The teachers are so helpful and truly care about the students and their needs, success, and the education they are getting. I have never had a problem with contact from the teachers or administration - they are prompt to return my calls/emails, and stay in touch with me and the kids over the phone. The variety of learning materials are essential to this school's success. There are actual textbooks/workbooks, as well as online ones. The lessons/activities are interactive and interesting. There are "live lessons" that take place in a virtual classroom where the teacher and students come together at a set time to have reviews and Q&As. There is an internal "webmail" system for the teachers and staff to communicate with the students and parents as well as allowing the students to talk with each other and make connections/friends. There is a message board FULL of info. Field trips are scheduled regularly for all age groups. There are extra-curricular opportunities with the Clubs program such as "Pens & Lens", the school magazine the kids put together, or the Robotics Club, Pen Pals, Student Leadership Club, and many, many more. My son was failing his first 2 years of "regular" high school. He is now a "B" student, on his way to graduating. My daughter faced peer pressures, drama, and even sexual harassment in her old school. She's now on the right path, in a safe environment, and doing well. I am very happy with SCCA and highy recommend it.

Don't expect anyone from the special services department to answer their phone or return phone…read morecalls I've been waiting for a month. Forget getting Home Bound help for a child with suicidal ideation. Apparently that's not important enough for the district to take seriously despite hospitalization. This school district is only motivated to help out their academically gifted and athletic students who make the school look good. They could care less about meeting the needs of all students. If you have a senior they'll still have to take a full day of classes even if they only have one or two required classes. They will make your kid fill the day anyway with classes they don't need because they don't do part time for seniors like other school districts will. This school might offer a lot of athletic options and classes but not every kid will be eligible to apply for those special programs. So many many issues with this District, especially River Bluff High School. All my kids talk about are all the fights and drug dogs at school.

Heathwood has given my child a confidence he previously was lacking and has given us another element to our Columbia community.
