It is with great excitement that I welcome you to a new school year at Saluda River Academy for the Arts! Our beliefs and actions are ultimately summarized in three words: Academics, Arts, and Advocacy. These three words will continue to guide us as we work to empower all students to excel academically while fostering a lifelong love for learning and the arts.
Saluda River is a family-friendly neighborhood school that has been part of the West Columbia community since 1955. We are the only Lexington Two elementary school that affords our students and school community the opportunity to immerse in dance, music, theater, and the visual arts in conjunction with our strong academic program. The integration of the arts truly sets us apart. We welcome you to join us at Saluda River to see the wonderful programs we have in place for our students.
I encourage you to become active members of the PTO and the school community and follow our school on our social media platforms. You can find us on Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). I have an open-door policy and welcome your input and ideas. My ultimate goal is to make SRAA a school where students feel safe, have a strong sense of belonging, and are empowered to achieve at high levels.
Thank you for entrusting us with your children. We are honored to be a part of their educational journey. Go Bobcats!
