We are also thankful for the Strickland Foundation for their generous contribution to the REACH Scholarship, helping support bright futures for our students.

Mr. Turner's Agriculture Mechanics class is getting deep into the inner workings of an engine! Students are gaining invaluable hands-on experience by learning how to disassemble an engine completely, understand its components, and then reassemble it correctly. 💡
This essential skill teaches precision, problem-solving, and the foundational engineering principles required for success in agricultural equipment maintenance. Great job, mechanics!

In November, Mrs. Kirk's 4th-grade learners took on a fun and creative challenge—helping a turkey escape Thanksgiving dinner! After designing a unique disguise for their turkey, learners chose to write one of two pieces:
An opinion piece, pretending to be the disguised turkey and arguing, “I am not a turkey, I am...”, or
A narrative story, sharing an imaginative adventure about the turkey’s escape from the Thanksgiving feast.
While this activity was full of laughter and creativity, it also helped learners apply important writing skills aligned to the Georgia Standards in English Language Arts.









Students in Mrs. Selph's, Mrs. Cook's, and Mrs. Francis's Geometry classes recently wrapped up an exciting hands-on project that combined math, storytelling, and design!
Using their knowledge of volume, surface area, and dilations, students created custom 3D castles and critters from self-designed nets. Each model was paired with a unique narrative story, bringing their mathematical creations to life through creativity and imagination. This project truly shows that math is all around us! 📐✨
