We will update social media pages as often as possible to share news about Early County School System (ECSS) and the achievements of the students and staff as well as other relevant information for ECSS. In times of inclement weather that necessitate school closing or other school-related emergencies, the pages will be updated in conjunction with the alerting of local media.
All social media sites used by ECSS are designated as Limited Public Forums. ECSS welcomes a person’s right to express his or her opinion and encourages commenters to keep comments relevant to the topic in question.
All comments posted on ECSS social media pages are at the discretion of the page administrators. The page administrators will review postings to make sure they do not violate these guidelines and privacy laws.
People making comments on the pages are requested to show respect for their fellow users by ensuring the discussion remains civil, especially since social media platforms allow individuals 13 years of age and older to join. Comments are also subject to the platform's Terms of Use. Remember that your name and photo will be seen next to your comment, visible to anyone who visits the page.
