Aiken County Public School District

Aiken County Public School District (ACPSD), also known as Consolidated School District of Aiken County, Aiken County School District or Aiken County Public Schools is a school district headquartered in Aiken, South Carolina.

It is the only school district covering sections of Aiken County, and it covers the majority of the county.[1] Additionally, it covers portions of Saluda County, where it includes that county's portion of Monetta, as well as Ridge Spring and Ward.[2]

The remaining portion of Aiken County is not in any school district.[1] The 2010 U.S. Census stated that this portion was in "School District Not Defined".[3] That undefined portion corresponds with the Savannah River Site.[4]

History

In 2019 the district's population was increasing.[5] In 2018 the district held a referendum to enact a bond to build new schools, and the referendum was approved.[6] As a result, the district planned to build and/or renovate 15 schools.[5]

King Laurence was superintendent until the end of the 2023–2024 school year.[7] Laurence had retired from his career. Corey Murphy became the new superintendent starting the 2024–2025 school year.[8] The handover occurred on July 1, 2024.[9]
