Athletics -- Results

County XC Championship Results
The Shark's successes at the Horry County XC Championship weren't necessarily measured in scores and places. All you can ask from a from a runner is to perform their best in big moments. That's exactly what " The Fastest fins on Two Feet" did. Every single athlete ran their season best, many by minutes rather than seconds.

Ava Keefer (21:35) made the All-County Team while breaking the 7th Grade school record to lead the Varsity Girls Team to a 4th place finish. Maryn Schubiger (22:22), Zoe Mason (23:51), Riley Parr (23:59), and Hayley Spears (24:30) also scored for the Lady Sharks. Kelly Rivera-Perez (25:36) led the JV Lady Sharks Team to a 3rd place finish.

Justin Zensky (18:05) placed 9th overall guiding the Varsity Boys to a 5th place finish. Austin Carroll (18:59), Ashton Williams-Robey (20:03), Carter Jones (20:05), and Oscar Hynes (20:07) all scored for the team. Chris Gasca (17:50) was crowned JV Horry County Champion while the JV Sharks Team placed 4th.

The varsity teams move on to the Region 6-5A Championship next Wednesday. It's been a great season for a very young JV team. We're looking forward to great things from them in the future.

Sharks Golf Advances to State Tournament

The Lady Sharks golf team played in the Lower State Qualifier on Monday at Shaftesbury Glenn. 15 teams were battling for the top 8 spots to advance to the state championship to be played Monday and Tuesday at Country Club of South Carolina. The Sharks were feeling confident coming off a region championship victory the week before, and their confidence showed in their scores. The team score of 329 was one stroke better than the region qualifier, and good enough for 4^th place in lower state and a spot in the state tournament. Adrian Anderson was tournament medalist with a 6 under round of 66. Emerson Devers had a good day with the 13^th lowest score of 79. Other scores counting in the team total were Zaria Robey (90) and Carissa Barrera (94). A complete breakdown of team and individual scores can be found on birdie fire live scoring at the link below.

Attendance

Attendance

Attendance Brochure 2021 2022

Attendance Coding Reference

South Carolina state law requires that all children attend school regularly beginning with the school year in which the child is five years of age before September 1st until the child attains his/her 17th birthday or graduates from high school. The school year consists of 180 days, and high school students cannot accumulate more than 5 absences per class and still receive credit for the course, regardless of the grade earned in the course. Family vacations, organizational trips, or retreats during the school year are included in the 5 absences per term. Please refer to the SJHS attendance brochure for specific details regarding attendance laws, policies, and “seat time” sessions.

Students Arriving Late
Students arriving at school after 8:20 must report to the attendance office to sign in and get a tardy pass. Failure to sign in will result in a disciplinary infraction and ISS. Students who miss more than 45 minutes of a class will be considered absent. Hall sweeps will be conducted as a deterrent for tardiness.

Early Dismissal By Parent Request
Students requiring early dismissal should bring a note from their parents to the front desk in order to obtain an early dismissal pass. All requests are to be submitted prior to 8:15 a.m. so that they may be verified by phone. The note must have a phone number at which the parent may be contacted. If the note cannot be verified by phone the student will not be allowed to leave. We cannot accept phone calls for early dismissal. Students will not be issued a tardy pass if they fail to bring their note to the front desk before 8:15 a.m. SJHS will not call classrooms unless it is an emergency; therefore, the student must have a pass to get out of class.

When it is time for students to leave, they are to go by the front desk to sign out. Students who do not bring a note for a pre-arranged medical or legal appointment must remain in class until the period ends before they will be permitted to sign out of school with their parent/guardian. Failure to sign out at the front desk will result in a disciplinary infraction and an assignment of ISS. Students will not be signed out after 3:00 p.m.

Procedures To Follow After An Absence
After an absence students are to report to the front desk before 8:15 a.m. with a note from their parent/guardian or from their doctor. Notes from the parent/guardian or doctor must be submitted to the front desk within three days of an absence. Failure to do so will result in an unverified unexcused absence. Students will not be written a tardy pass to first block because they failed to bring their note to the front desk before 8:15 a.m.

Unlawful Absences
Students who miss school without parental knowledge, and students who are absent from school without acceptable cause with the knowledge of the parent, are considered unlawfully absent. According to the SC Attendance/Truancy Law when students have three consecutive unlawful or unexcused absences or a total of five unlawful or unexcused absences, the school will contact parents and develop an Attendance Intervention Plan (AIP) for improved attendance. Students exceeding five days of unlawful or unexcused absences will be reported to Family Court. Students who have excessive unlawful or unexcused absences in a single class may also be referred to Family Court for truancy.

Excused Absences
The following absences are considered excused: medical, judicial, and bereavement. Students will need to provide documentation for medical, judicial, and bereavement absences upon returning to school. Prearranged absenses for other reasons and/or extreme hardships are at the discretion of the principal.

Reporting Student Absences
Parents are asked to contact Beth Jordan in the event of students’ absences from school. Parents may call the attendance office at (843) 650-2448 or e-mail BJordan003@horrycountyschools.net.
Cafeteria Services / Menus / Order Form
