Student Support

Spartanburg Day School

Our goal at the Spartanburg Day School is for every student to develop the tools he or she need to succeed in the classroom, in college and beyond.

Our small class sizes allow teachers to focus on our students as individuals. If a student needs assistance beyond the classroom, there are a number of programs available to provide him or her with the necessary support, through our VISTAS program. (Varied Instructional Strategies for Teaching All Students). Click here to learn more about VISTAS

Available Services

  • The Aftercare Program offers daily study halls after school for 1st through 8th graders. Students complete homework assignments in a supervised setting, with access to the school’s computer labs and school library.
  • Organizational tutorials, grouped by age level, are also held daily after school for 1st through 8th graders. Parents decide how often the student will attend. These tutorials assist students with study habits, time management and daily homework assignments.
