Welcome Back Students & Parents/Guardians!
My name is Gena K. Wideman, Principal of the great McCormick High School. It is my
pleasure to serve as your principal for the 2025-2026 school year. McCormick High
continues to grow through its vision of creating a learning environment that builds
character, promotes critical thinking, and requires staff and students to take ownership
of his/her learning and behavior. We are growing doctors, lawyers, construction
workers, welders, cosmetologist, entrepreneurs, educators, etc. Evidence was shown
through our clubs, organizations, college and career readiness programs, and observing
our students show growth academically and behaviorally. We are truly looking forward
to a great year as we celebrate MHS “Movin’ On Up”!
Parent/Guardians, in order for MHS to continue its growth, we need your help. Getting
your child registered for school is the first step in his/her career path.
Registration will be held July 10, 2025 from 9am – 5:00pm in the
McCormick High School Gymnasium. During registration, you will receive
various information ranging from course schedules to becoming involved in the
Parent-Teacher Organization.
Make sure your child is present for registration so he/she can take an ID picture.
If they do not take an updated ID picture, the picture from 2024 will be used to
print his/her ID.
Clear bookbags will be available for purchasing during registration, as clear bags
are required for the upcoming school year.
Open-house for MHS will be held on Monday, July 21, 2025 from 12:30pm –
3:30pm.
o During open-house, your child will be able to discuss his/her schedule to
make sure any courses needed towards graduation are not missed.
o We would love for you and your child to come and meet his/her teachers.
First day of school ~ Thursday, July 24, 2025.
Parents/guardians, we look forward to your support as we provide college and career
pathways for your child through the Profile of the South Carolina Graduate—World
Class Knowledge, Skills, Life/Career Characteristics, and Excellence.
Sincerely,
Gena K. Wideman
