Dorchester School District Two is a school district based in Summerville, South Carolina, United States.
It serves the southeastern portion of Dorchester County, including sections of Summerville and North Charleston. [3]
Givhans Alternative Program (GAP) was established to provide varying levels of instruction for students who struggle in the mainstream programs of Dorchester District Two. Typically, students are sent to GAP as punishment for behavioral issues, including physical altercations as well as drug use or possession. Functionally, it is similar to a prison. Students are not permitted to bring bags to school, as faculty and staff fear they may try to conceal weapons. The quality of the education received is typically quite poor.
