The TCES Spanish Club learned about the country of Equatorial Guinea. The students learned about their foods, animals, landmarks, government, and flag. Finally, we got to make a giraffe, which is Equatorial Guinea’s national animal. The giraffes were so cute and tasty too!

Thank you for partnering with us to support student success!

1st Grade has had a fun dress up week in honor of Dr. Suess!! 🐱 🎩 ❤️

Second grade has thoroughly enjoyed Read Across America Week! Thank you so much to all of the special readers that came to visit each of our classrooms.

Over the past few weeks, Mrs. Bateman's homeroom students have had the incredible opportunity to learn from real professionals and volunteers in our community. Through career visits and meaningful conversations, they discovered how passions, skills, and hard work can shape the future. These experiences are helping inspire the career research projects they will soon turn into their very own published class book. We are so thankful for the community members who took the time to invest in our students and help them dream big about what they can become. 📚✨ Thank you to Mrs. Malory Kicklighter with Pembroke Pharmacy and Boutique, Mr. Josh Thigpen with AEMC, Mrs. Keeley Wilkes with MadDash Cookie Co, Mrs. Ashley Martin & Mrs. Mandy Johnson with Imago Dei Missions, Mrs. Danielle Saffold (Army Veteran), Mr. Mitch Bellflower with Lyons First Baptist Church, and Dr. Merrick Kilgore with Kilgore Animal Hospital.

🌟 March Family Engagement Spotlight 🌟

Parental involvement makes a powerful difference in a child’s education! When families stay engaged, students experience:

✅ Increased motivation and engagement
✅ Improved behavior

Family engagement doesn’t have to be complicated. Simple actions make a big impact:
📚 Read with your child
🎉 Attend school functions
💬 Talk about school events
✏️ Help with homework

Together, we can create a supportive partnership that helps every child succeed. Thank you for being an essential part of our school family! 💛

We always love getting to represent Toombs County Schools!
We had a great time hosting a Toombs County Schools booth at the SECCA Job Fair today, connecting with local high school students and sharing the many career opportunities available right here in our district. We are proud to showcase how the Toombs County School System invests in students and future professionals.
It’s always exciting to meet students who are exploring their next steps. We hope to see many of them back with us in the future!
