Aiken County Public School District considers literacy to be the primary element in promoting student growth as thinkers and communicators.  Rich experiences in reading, writing, listening, and speaking for all students foster self-directed and lifelong learners.  We believe

• All students should have access to literacy-rich environments.

• Home-school connections are essential in supporting student growth in literacy.

• Collaboration among schools, families, and community members is critical to promoting literacy development.
