🛏️ No Kid Sleeps on the Floor: Claxton FFA Makes an Impact in Macon! 🐯

Our Claxton FFA Chapter recently returned from a powerful five-day journey at the Georgia FFA State Convention in Macon. While the week was filled with leadership workshops and exploration, the highlight was a massive community service initiative that hit close to home.

In partnership with Sleep in Heavenly Peace, our very own Preston Waters, Mason Sapp, and Garrison Sapp joined forces with FFA members from across Georgia to build over 1,000 beds for children in need.

The Mission in Action:

Precision & Skill: Students measured, cut, and sanded lumber to create high-quality bed frames.

Teamwork: Working alongside peers from all over the state to meet an ambitious production goal.

Heart: Knowing that their hard work ensures a child in Georgia won't have to sleep on the floor tonight.

We are incredibly proud of these young men for representing Evans County with such grit and compassion. They didn't just attend a convention; they built a legacy! 🖤💛

👵👴 Age is Just a Number (Especially at CMS During Testing Week!)
Things are looking a little… gray around here today! To continue week two of testing season with some laughs and a lot of heart, our teachers took a trip to the future (and the past).

🏆 The First Ever CMS "Golden Years" Beauty Pageant
Move over, influencers—our faculty just redefined "senior" year! Teachers traded their lesson plans for walkers, cardigans, and orthopedics to compete in our first-ever Old People Beauty Pageant.

Students voted for their favorite "elderly" contestant during Tiger Pride today.

📺 Throwback TV: Then vs. Now
While the teachers are looking ahead to their 90s, we’re also looking back at their middle school days. All week long our hallway monitors will display

Flashback Photos of the teachers: (Yes, the hairstyles were that different) AND

Testing Memoirs: from the #2 pencil struggles to the pre-test jitters.

Pro Tip: If they survived middle school testing without the internet, you’ve got this!

Let’s bring that Tiger Pride energy into testing week. Good luck, everyone! 🐯✨

🧦 Throwback at CMS: Stepping Into Testing Week on the Right Foot!
Last week, we kicked off testing season by making sure our students started off with a little extra spring in their step—literally!

👣 The Great Sock Giveaway
To help everyone "sock it" to the test, every student was surprised with a brand-new pair of crazy socks! From bold patterns to vibrant colors, our Tigers were rocking some seriously stylish footwear all over campus.

🎸 Gym Floor Grooves: The CMS Sock Hop
The fun didn't stop with the socks. Students headed down to the CMS gym for an old-school Sock Hop! It was the perfect way to burn off some pre-test jitters, show off those new threads, and share some laughs before hitting the books.

The Vibe: High energy, sliding across the gym floor, and plenty of Tiger spirit to get everyone in the right mindset for success.

We are so proud of the hard work our students put in last week! Looking back, those crazy socks clearly brought some extra magic to the classrooms. 🐯✨

🌟 From Service to Scenery: The Claxton FFA State Convention Highlights! 🐯

Our Claxton FFA Chapter attended a transformative five-day experience at the Georgia FFA State Convention in Macon, and "meaningful impact" doesn't even begin to describe it!

Our delegation—Preston Waters, Mason Sapp, and Garrison Sapp—represented Evans County with excellence through a week of hard work and growth.

Here’s a look at their journey:

🛠️ Service with a Heart: Alongside peers from across Georgia, our Tigers helped construct over 1,000 beds for Sleep in Heavenly Peace, ensuring no child in Georgia has to sleep on the floor. (More on this will be share in another post.)

🌲 Outdoor Exploration: To decompress after their hard work, the group headed to High Falls State Park. They traded the convention floor for hiking trails and lake views, appreciating the environmental beauty that is so central to the FFA mission.

📈 Leadership & Networking: Between sessions, students participated in intensive leadership development, sharpening their communication and critical thinking skills while making lifelong friends from every corner of the state.

A huge "Thank You" to Mr. Turner for his unwavering guidance and for helping our Tigers step out of their comfort zones to become more confident, compassionate leaders. 🖤💛

💛✨ Learning About Emotions & Friendship in Tiger Way! ✨💛

In Ms. Hendrix’s Tiger Way Character Education enrichment classes, our 2nd and 4th graders explored the important topic of emotions—learning that sometimes we may look one way on the outside while feeling a completely different way on the inside. 🎭💭 Students created masks to represent their outside emotions and their inside emotions, and discussed how people sometimes wear a “mask” to hide how they truly feel. What a meaningful and thoughtful lesson!
Our Kindergarten and 1st graders focused on sharing and being a good friend by making some very special Friendship Soup! 🥣💞 The recipe included:

1 cup of honesty
1 cup of kindness
2 tablespoons of silliness
2 cups of fun
2 cups of respect
1 cup of trust
1 cup of sharing

These lessons help build caring, respectful, and supportive Tigers—inside and out! 🐯💛✨

This week, Evans County Schools proudly celebrates Teacher Appreciation Week!

To our teachers—thank you.

Thank you for the early mornings and late afternoons.
Thank you for the patience, the encouragement, and the belief you pour into every student.
Thank you for showing up every day—not just to teach lessons, but to change lives.

In classrooms across our district, you are doing far more than covering standards. You are building confidence, inspiring curiosity, and creating a safe place where students feel seen, valued, and capable of success.

The impact you make doesn’t end when the school day is over—it carries into the futures of the students you serve and the strength of our entire community.

We are grateful for your dedication, your resilience, and your heart.

Evans County Schools is stronger because of you.

👔 The Standard of Excellence: Dr. Paul Mizell
The shirt and tie may change from year to year, but our appreciation for Dr. Mizell certainly doesn't. As we celebrate School Principal Appreciation Day, the students, faculty, and staff of CHS want to send a huge "Thank You" to our leader. Whether he is navigating the school day or supporting our Tigers at after school events, Dr. Mizell’s steady leadership and dedication to excellence keep our school moving forward.

🚀 From the Classroom to CEO: Holly Durrence
A great leader knows the way because they’ve walked the way. We are also incredibly proud to highlight the CEO of our College and Career Academy, Holly Durrence. Holly’s impact on Evans County Schools has been profound, serving as a Classroom Teacher, an Instructional Coach, and now as the CEO of The DEN. Because she has seen education from a variety of angles, she brings a unique perspective and deep understanding of what our students and staff need to thrive in the real world.

Together, Dr. Mizell and Mrs. Durrence form a dynamic team dedicated to preparing our students for whatever comes next. On behalf of the entire Tiger family, thank you both for your vision, your mentorship, and your tireless work to Restore The Roar! 🐯🖤💛

Down on the farm with Mrs. Abby and Mrs. Dhiman! 🧑‍🌾🌾

We had such an engaging week learning about agriculture. The students loved searching for animals in the sensory table, watering our garden, and watching the giant popcorn machine pop our snacks! 🍿🪴 Plus, the excitement is building as we kicked off our ABC Countdown! 🎉

🔍📐 Learning Geometry in Action! 📐🔍

Our 3rd graders took learning outside during a quadrilateral scavenger hunt on the playground! 🌞🏫 Students explored their surroundings to find parallel and perpendicular lines and identify different types of quadrilaterals, turning math into a fun, hands‑on adventure.

We love seeing learning happen beyond the classroom walls! 💛🐯📚
