Quality early learning for young children improves third grade reading proficiency and increases high school graduation rates. One of the many reasons to join us in supporting #GaPreKWeek #4theT
Mrs. Powell’s class loved having Ms. Burkes coming to read to us today! She read Party in Your Rain and When I Grow Up. We learned the valuable lesson of always finding the people in our lives that help us find joy in hard situations.
We did it!! Our Book Fair was a huge success and one our students will always remember!
#GaPreK has grown! It started as a pilot program in 1992 serving 750 children and now serves over 71,000 children annually. #GaPreKWeek #4theT
Our book fair dates have been extended until the 9th!!!! So, students can still shop the fair, this week until Wednesday.
Mrs. Webster’s first grade class celebrated learning words with SH and WH by enjoying SHakes with WHip cream on Friday!! These students have done an AMAZING job recognizing and reading words with these consonant digraphs ❤️
Join us October 7th - 11th as we celebrate quality early learning during #GaPreKWeek! #4theT

Letter to all Tift County Parents and the Tift County Community from Superintendent Natalie Gore. #4theT
We are pleased to inform you that students will return to school on Thursday, October 3rd, following the recent inclement weather days.
Thank you to our parents and community for your patience and support during this time. We look forward to having our students back in our schools to resume instruction and continue working toward increased achievement for the school year.
Our transportation team is working to develop new bus stops for our students who live off of dirt roads that have been washed out and are not passable. Please be patient with our transportation team as they work to navigate continued road closures.

Red Ribbon Week! ❤️❤️❤️ #wearRRWMWE #4theT
It's Scholastic Book Fair time!. Come experience the limitless possibilities with your kids. Every purchase benefits our school.
While schools remain closed for students today, we will once again offer an opportunity for meal bag pickup. Parents may bring students to any of our schools (except for Annie Belle Clark and Tift County High School) beginning at 9am, to pick up a meal bag that includes breakfast and lunch. Quantities will be limited, and they will be distributed on a first come, first served basis. #4theT
All Tift County Schools will remain closed for students on Wednesday, October 2nd. In order to help determine readiness for our students to return, all staff members are asked to report. We will provide families with an update by early afternoon tomorrow regarding Thursday, October 3rd.

We are now loading buses and heading around town with meals. Be on the lookout for a Tift County school bus. Locations include Walmart, Food Lion, multiple apartment complexes and trailer parks. #4theT

Good afternoon! This is a reminder of our student meal pickup tomorrow. Please understand that due to federal school nutrition regulations, students must be present in order to pick up a meal. Each bag will include a hot lunch and a shelf stable breakfast. Distribution sites will open at 9:00am and meals will be distributed on a first come, first served basis, while supplies last. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow! #4theT
