📚 Georgia Reads Day is September 21st!

On September 21st Tift County will join other communities across Georgia celebrating Georgia Reads Day, kicking off Georgia Reads Week, September 21st – 25th.

Georgia Reads Day is an opportunity for everyone to celebrate literacy by sharing a simple, meaningful moment with a child, family member, student, neighbor, or friend. You do not need a special event, a classroom, or even a new book!

💬 A conversation is a literacy moment.
🎶 A song is a literacy moment.
📖 A story is a literacy moment.
📚 A trip to the library is a literacy moment.

Follow us on social media and throughout the week we will share literacy activities you can enjoy at home with your child. Every literacy moment helps build the skills, confidence, and curiosity children need to become lifelong learners.

Regular attendance is essential for student success. Tift County Schools works with families through a step-by-step attendance intervention process when students have unexcused absences, repeated tardies, or early check-outs. Please communicate with your child’s school when challenges arise so we can provide support before attendance concerns become more serious. Together, we can help every student stay present and on track!

🎬 Science in Action on ABC Morning News! 🎬

Our Annie Belle Clark students brought this week's science vocabulary to life with a special morning news skit!

This week’s word was COMPARE—and Allie Grace, Skyler, and Dexter did a fantastic job showing what it means to look at two or more things to spot how they are alike and different. We love seeing our students lead, learn, and shine on camera each morning. 📸✨#4theT
