Shoally Creek Elementary School is a proud Title I school located in the community of Boiling Springs in Spartanburg School District Two. SCES is one of nine elementary schools in a rapidly growing district located in northern Spartanburg County in the upstate of South Carolina. Our school serves approximately 650 students, including four-year-old kindergarten through fifth grade.
The richly soiled farmland that once cultivated juicy, ripe South Carolina peaches and then raised grass-fed cattle is now the picturesque setting that serves for educating the children within the growing Boiling Springs community. In August of 2016, Shoally Creek Elementary School (SCES) proudly opened its brand-new doors welcoming portions of student bodies from three “sister” elementary schools within our school district. These students would be our school’s very first Blue Jays!
SCES is a certified Jon Gordon Energy Bus School; focused and committed to practicing the 7 Energy Bus Principles for creating a positive place within our community for all ages to learn and live. Parents provide strong support to our school through their involvement in program and activities, such as Open House, School Improvement Council, PTO, Terrific Kids programs, Literacy Night, Math and Science Family Night, and Fine Arts Night. We welcome parent engagement as a way to strengthen home and school communication and it is our goal to include parents in every aspect of their child’s education. In an effort to increase our communication with parents, we have increased our social media presence through Facebook and Instagram. Our school website, social media, School Messenger, the SeeSaw app, and the PowerSchool Parent Portal facilitate the sharing of information with students and parents.
Shoally Creek Elementary is committed to cultivating educational excellence for all students and we are proud of the positive strides we are making in order to meet the diverse needs of all of our students. On behalf of the entire SCES faculty and staff, we are grateful to our families for their continued support and ongoing commitment to our school.
