Per South Carolina legislation, cell phones are prohibited in the classroom, effective immediately. Students should enter the classroom with cell phones silenced/turned off and should be stowed in backpacks. Students, therefore, are also not allowed to wear airpods/earbuds/headphones in the classroom. Should parents need to contact students, please call the front office at (864) 850-5900. Failure to comply with this legislation will result in an automatic referral and consequences will be determined by the administrative team.

The Anderson One Nutrition Service Department is excited to announce the launch of the new My School Menus app! The My School Menus app allows parents and students to access breakfast and lunch menus for all district kitchens. Just simply download the app from the app store, search for Anderson School District One, select your student’s school, and then select the menu you would like to view. You may also view My School Menus online.
By using the app you can view all nutritional information for each menu item or the entire menu for the day. You can also use the Build A Meal feature to select individual items from the menu and the nutritional information for your selection. By using the app you can filter allergens, carbs, protein, calories, and much more.
As a department, we feel that it is very important for parents to have the most up-to-date information at their fingertips when it comes to their child's nutrition. The app is convenient for all parents to track their child’s nutritional needs. With the ever-changing supply delays causing menu changes it is important to us to establish a direct line of communication with families to keep them informed of last-minute changes. On the administrative side of the app, the food service department is able to plan menus to ensure that all state and federal regulations are met.
Below are the QR codes to download the app:
