SC Whitmore School is a public charter school in the South Carolina Public Charter School District. As a public school, we are a tuition-free, no-cost school of choice.

No (to both). SC Whitmore School is an online public charter school, making us a school of choice for any student living in South Carolina. We are proudly a part of the South Carolina Public Charter School District. By attending SC Whitmore School, you’ll work with highly-qualified, SC-certified teachers, school counselors, and support staff dedicated to helping you earn your public high school diploma.

SC Whitmore School has a flexible academic calendar, with open enrollment periods, allowing you to enroll any time of the school year and get started right away on courses. As a public charter school, we may reach an enrollment capacity point during the year. At this point, a waitlist is enacted and you would be placed in line with other students and enrolled on a first-come, first-served basis, as soon as seats become available.

SC Whitmore School has a team of dedicated SC-certified teachers who can help tailor assignments, curriculum requirements, and pacing to meet your child’s Individualized Education Program (IEP). Our SC-certified special education teachers provide curriculum support, life-skills training, and work one-on-one to help you reach your individual academic and life goals.

SC Whitmore School awards a standard South Carolina diploma, the same that is awarded by all other public high schools across the state.

Our online course system and Student/Parent Dashboard take the guesswork out of attendance. Courses log both student active working time and assignments completed in each course, each day. Need to miss a day during the week? No problem. Students are required to submit work in each class 5-days each week, but work submitted over the weekend will make up attendance missed earlier during that week.

Your Student/Parent Dashboard shows you a snapshot view of attendance each week, with access to a more detailed calendar-view that allows you to see exactly how much time you spend in classes each day and the assignments completed.

Computers and devices are a personal choice and often an expression of personality, so we allow students to use their own computers for coursework and assignments. All students are required to have a desktop or laptop computer as their primary device for viewing lessons and completing assignments.

• A computer less than 3-4 years old is recommended and can be a PC, Mac, or Google Chromebook.
• SC Whitmore School is a Google Educational Workplace, so students will have access to free productivity tools and assignment creation tools through their SCWS-issued Google account.
• Students may find the use of tablets or smartphones can be used to assist in coursework, but some functionality of courses and assignment tools may not be available.
• At this time, technical support for courses is only provided for desktop and laptop computers.
