Students in York County head back to school amid learning, calendar changes

YORK COUNTY, S.C. — This week, thousands of students across our area are heading back to school.

Students in York School District 1 wrapped up their first day on Monday. This year, they face some big changes, including a new calendar and a new program that will change the way some students learn.

“We’re doing a lot with the student-centered learning, so it’s all about the student,” Jefferson Elementary School Principal Mattie Hughes told reporter Tina Terry.

PREVIOUS: Students to discover more efficient paths in competency-based education

The state board of education has granted York School District 1 the flexibility to implement “competency-based” learning.

Hughes said teachers will work to individualize learning.

“Some of them need that small group setting, some of them you can give them a little direction and they are able to kind of take off,” Hughes explained. “So you need to figure out that student’s needs and how to push them.”

District officials said students will be able to change their course work based on their readiness. High school students who test out of basic courses could have more time for apprenticeships and college courses.

“I think it’s going to work, I do. I think it will be a positive experience for them,” Hughes said.

In addition to the new program, the district has a new calendar this school year. The modified calendar will give students and teachers more frequent breaks. It also features a shorter summer break to help cut back on learning loss.

In York, students will have a full week off from school in October and in February in addition to the traditional winter and spring breaks.

York School District 1 Superintendent Kelly Coxe told Channel 9′s Tina Terry this new calendar will give students who are behind a chance to catch up during the school year.

“It’s an opportunity for our teachers to have a break. In this time of competitiveness between districts, the teacher shortage,” Coxe said. “We wanted to make sure we honored the voice of our teachers.”

She says it will also help improve teacher recruitment and retention.

Chester and Chesterfield counties have also implemented modified schedules this school year.

Chester County public schools started back on Monday. Lancaster County, Fort Mill and Rock Hill schools start on Aug. 21.

Nearly 20 years after SC legalized tattoo parlors, York County’s first is set to open

York County’s first tattoo parlor is ready to make its mark, with grand opening activities planned for Saturday.The Local Tattoo has a noon ribbon cutting and 1 p.m. raffle at 1140 S.C. 55 E. in Clover. The tattoo shop will give away $3,000 in ...

York County’s first tattoo parlor is ready to make its mark, with grand opening activities planned for Saturday.

The Local Tattoo has a noon ribbon cutting and 1 p.m. raffle at 1140 S.C. 55 E. in Clover. The tattoo shop will give away $3,000 in free tattoo prizes, according to an online event page.

Artists are taking online bookings now. Walk-ins are welcome, too. The new shop will be open Tuesdays through Saturdays 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., according to its website.

The shop is one of two buildings on the same parcel between Courtney’s BBQ and Brew and the Clover Area Assistance Center.

A former gas station built in 1950 sits on the property. So does the former Market on Main building. A Belmont, North Carolina, company bought the property in 2013.

Devon Aguila and Heather Ireland moved to Clover last year from Arizona. They closed a shop there and planned to open one in their new hometown when they realized they were somewhere different. Where they left, tattoo shops were everywhere.

”We were really looking to get a location in our town,” Ireland said. “We really haven’t seen any tattoo studios in York County.”

South Carolina law didn’t allow tattoo parlors until 2004. Now the state health department regulates them.

Tattoo parlors aren’t allowed within 1,000 feet of a school, church or playground, but otherwise it’s up to counties or municipalities to set their own zoning rules for where they can be.

Almost two decades after tattoo parlors became legal, the SC Department of Health and Environmental Control lists 162 parlors statewide. Columbia has 22 of them. Myrtle Beach has 16. Spartanburg has 12 parlors, Sumter and Anderson contain eight each and several smaller communities across the state have a handful each.

The Local Tattoo in Clover is the first and only one located in York County. Neither Lancaster nor Chester counties has one, either.

In 2017 Long Island, New York, entrepreneur Lou Rubino moved south and set up shop in unincorporated Fort Mill for three tattoo-related businesses in an industrial park near Carowinds. Within a year about 50 employees worked at Ultimate Tattoo Supply, United Ink Productions and World Famous Tattoo Ink. The companies brought tattoo machines, needles and ink, and even started the Queen City Tattoo & Arts Festival in Charlotte.

There are other surface level ties to tattoos in the area.

Rock Hill has Tattooed Brews, a bar and restaurant concept that celebrates the inked lifestyle in its name but doesn’t ink customers. The Mercantile in Rock Hill opened a temporary tattoo parlor in 2019 billed as a family friendly place for inked art lasting two to four days.

Tattoos were part of a much larger conversation in Rock Hill that same year, in relation to the since failed Carolina Panthers headquarters project that was once destined for York County.

Representatives for the NFL team sought several concessions related to the anticipated move of its team practice facility from Charlotte to Rock Hill. They wanted to be allowed two potential uses disallowed by state law — gambling venues and bars selling alcohol past 2 a.m. They also wanted two potential uses prohibited by Rock Hill law, cigar bars and tattoo parlors.

Ultimately none of those requests were the reason the Panthers project fell through last year. The timing and allocation of public funding were reasons given by the team.

Earlier this year a change.org petition popped up calling for Rock Hill zoning rule changes to allow a tattoo parlor. City planning staff brought up tattoo sites in some recent public meetings on other zoning questions, but haven’t made significant changes.

York County took up questions on tattoo parlors as part of its recent recoding of zoning rules last year.

Ireland said it took a while to find a spot that fit parameters to get a licensed tattoo place in South Carolina.

”Our vision for this studio is, we’re really looking to offer our community a high-end tattoo studio,” Ireland said. “They come in and all our staff are professional. It’s bright, airy, clean.”

There’s pressure, Ireland said, about being the first parlor in the county. “We want to be accepted by our community.”

Ireland said there can be negative stigmas associated with tattoos or parlors. Owners hope if there are people in the community with concerns or who are skeptical, they’ll come out Saturday and meet the new crew.

”We’re here for the art,” Ireland said. “We’re here for the clients.”

There’s a new campground proposal in York County. How it fits into a growing trend

A York County campground reborn could add yet another new outdoor option to the area.

The owner of 20 acres at 787 Woodland Park Road in Smyrna wants to develop the property into a 40-site campground. It would include RV camping. The site is more than a mile east of the town, off S.C. 5.

The county zoning board of appeals will hear the case Thursday. The property needs a special exception from that board to allow the campground, but it’s not the first time the site has been a camping destination.

The property was an active campground in the 1990s known as Woodlands Campground. Structures there date back to the 1970s, according to county land records. By early 2000, the campground was closed, but the site still has much of what supported 45 campsites there. There’s a concrete swimming pool, two bathhouses, an acre pond and other buildings.

Marcus Clayton acquired the property about three years ago from the late, long-time owner who ran the camp property.

“We’re just trying to get the baby back up to what she used to be,” Clayton said. “There’s a lot of memories out there. We want to get it back to something that people can enjoy like they used to.”

Clayton’s family went to the campground in its earlier years.

“Just an old diamond in the rough,” Clayton said.

In late 2020, Clayton had some friends over for camping and took some reservations but got more feedback and support than he expected. Social media blew up, Clayton said.

“We quit posting when we figured out we had more stuff to do with the county,” Clayton said.

If the decision Thursday goes his way, Clayton intends to move toward reopening and expanding the site in full. Somewhere for parents and kids to play and unplug, he said.

“There’s not a whole lot of room for that anymore,” Clayton said.

The new plan for Woodland Park Campground involves additional RV space as part of 40 total spaces. A site plan for the project shows 17 sites with a bathhouse just off Woodland Park Road before the internal drive splits in several directions to access the remaining camp sites, parking and a swimming pool. There’s a private residence on the southeast portion of the site. There’s a pond and pavilion to the southwest.

Between the residence and the pond there’s an area marked future expansion. The expansion area is 7 acres.

The Rock Hill region has long-established camping options from Ebenezer Park in Rock Hill to the Anne Springs Close Greenway in Fort Mill to state parks like Andrew Jackson State Park in Lancaster, Chester State Park and Landsford Canal State Park in Chester County and Kings Mountain State Park in York County.

There also are new or planned additions. There’s recent and coming work at Ebenezer to upgrade and expand its camp offerings. York County also has Allison Creek Park set to add camping on Lake Wylie and the massive Catawba Bend Preserve coming along the Catawba River.

Last fall, a property owner with 78 acres in southwestern Lancaster County, near the Chester County line, applied to build a campground with 166 sites, a dog park and more off Cedar Creek Road.

This spring, the owner of 335 acres on Kendelwood Drive in Lancaster County applied to build a Christian campground on about 20 acres. It would include an activity center with bus parking, and a chapel.

The York County planning commission moved forward with several plans Monday night that would allow new homes and businesses.

The most significant residential change comes in Lake Wylie. There, two decisions would add almost 180 homes.

Here are the proposed land changes and uses approved by the commission:

? The planning commission approved a preliminary plat for a 155-home subdivision on almost 96 acres in Lake Wylie. Aberforth at Allison Creek sits at the intersection of Charlotte Highway and Daimler Boulevard. Fiorenza Properties is the developer. Big Allison Creek sits just south of the property.

The property sits on land that was part of the Big Allison Creek development agreement approved more than a decade ago by the county. That agreement requires commercial space that isn’t planned yet, but does appear on the residential plat.

A submitted plan shows a roundabout at Daimler and S.C. 49. Just west, plans show two 9,500-square-foot commercial buildings and four 5,000-square-foot commercial buildings. Homes are behind the commercial space with roads leading to five cul-de-sacs and several planned ponds.

? The planning commission approved a preliminary plat for the fifth phase of the Gentry at Hands Mill, within Hands Mill at Lake Wylie. The commission approved plans in 2018 for Gentry, at 129 homes. The final phase is 24 homes on almost 15 acres. The new approval was needed after trees were removed from areas not shown in prior plans, though the overall project still meets its tree save and open space requirements.

The Valita Road homes and property involved in the decision include two marinas off a peninsula on Lake Wylie.

? A plan to rezone almost 6 acres in Fort Mill will go to York County Council after the planning commission recommended in favor of the change. Brothers Storage applied for the rezoning to allow a boat and RV storage operation with trucking on the west side of Flint Hill Road, north of Pikeview Road.

In May, the county issued a stop work order for zoning violations and land disturbance without a permit for the property cleared prior to allow tractor trailer storage. A sketch plan submitted with the application shows almost 90 parking spaces.

? The planning commission also voted to approve a plat that splits an almost 72-acre property into two parcels, the smaller piece at about 5 acres, along Charlotte Highway between North Shiloh and Adkins roads between Lake Wylie and York. Both properties would remain residential and agricultural.

? An almost 6-acre parcel at 1674 Lawrence Road, south of Clover, would be rezoned as part of a split from one residential parcel to two. The planning commission recommended in favor of the decision which would add one home.
