In School Suspension (ISS)
Byrnes High School operates a Behavior Management program which allows students the opportunity of staying in school rather than serving out of school suspension for discipline violations. Students who are assigned ISS will be required to report to the ISS classroom at the beginning of the day and will remain until school is dismissed.
Students will eat their lunch at designated times during ISS activities and may bring their own lunch if they so desire.
It is the responsibility of all Byrnes High students to be familiar with the discipline policy and its consequences. If a student fails to participate in the ISS program when assigned, then OSS may be given.
Rules for ISS
1. Students are required to bring their laptops and all other necessary materials with them to complete assignments.
2. Students are not allowed to chew gum, eat candy, etc.
3. Students are to maintain good posture at their desk-sit up straight.
Do not slouch or lean. No sleeping is allowed.
4. A set ISS schedule will be followed during the day.
5. If students’ assigned work is not completed or they have
unacceptable behavior in ISS, OSS will be assigned to students.
6. Respect for self, teachers, and fellow students is required--it is not
an option.
7. Students are not allowed to access personal electronic
communication devices while in ISS.
Music Program
Chorus:​ The Byrnes Choral Department is open to students who want to develop their vocal and music reading skills. Classes include Academy Chorale, Rebel Singers, and Byrnes Singers (Honors). Additional groups, (ladies' ensemble, men's ensemble) are organized to meet the needs and interests of the students. Choral students have opportunities to participate in local, regional, and state events (honor choirs, SC All-State Chorus, festivals, and competitions). Chorus classes perform in seasonal concerts as well as school and community events. Our goal is for students to learn to read music and perform a variety of styles of music with a mature, healthy voice.
