Henry L. Sneed Middle School began its mission of educating young people in 1994. Since its inception, faculty and staff have continued its commitment to provide a balanced, well-rounded education which will prepare students to be successful in high school. Our goal for our students is to become responsible citizens and lifelong learners.

In the classroom, our teachers and students continue to exhibit a high level of excellence.  Teachers use progress monitoring tools to provide high level learning opportunities for all students. We utilize the latest emerging technologies in our classrooms as we move deeper into the 21st century.

Sneed students have excelled in academic and creative competitions. The Pee Dee Education Center named seven Sneed students as South Carolina Junior Scholars. A Sneed 8th grader received first place in the Florence Public School District One writing award program while another one of our students penned the winning essay in the District African American History Month writing competition.

Outside the classroom, the Sneed Band received an “Excellent” rating by a panel of judges at the South Carolina Band Directors Association Concert Band Festival. A Sneed 8th grade student has been ranked as the number eight middle school student in the state of South Carolina on his instrument, the Alto Saxophone, and has earned the position of 2nd alternate in the South Carolina All- State Band. Nine Sneed Students earned seats in the Eastern District Honor Band. In technology competition, three students represented Sneed in the First Lego League Robotics tournament.  They won 1st place for the best overall team.

Sneed Middle School is particularly proud of the participation of its faculty and students in various charitable efforts. Sneed students have provided food and other supplies through our Beta Club Book Drive, House of Hope, Pennies for Patients and The Samaritan’s Purse shoebox project. Through such programs, our students and faculty learn about the true meaning of duty, service, patriotism and being part of something larger than one’s self.

Our mission at Sneed Middle School is to provide our students with a broad-based learning environment with academic, social, and charitable programs. Our goal is to send academically prepared and socially aware students to the next phase of their education and ultimately developing responsible and productive members of society.
