🎃🍂❤️💛 Fall Is Full of Learning at Harper Elementary! 🐾 Fall fun is happening across our elementary schools, and our Harper Eagles are getting in on the excitement with a little pumpkin science! 🔬🌱 Our kindergarten scientists got their hands messy exploring the inside of a pumpkin, collecting seeds and pulp, and creating their very own decomposition experiment using a jar and potting soil! Now they'll get to watch what happens over time as their pumpkin begins to break down, making observations and discovering science in action! We LOVE how our elementary Bulldogs are turning seasonal fun into hands-on learning, exploration, and discovery! From pumpkin guts to growing curiosity—fall learning is in full swing! 🎃❤️💛🐾 #HarperElementary #FallFun #HandsOnLearning #LittleScientists #ThomasvilleCitySchools #BeABulldog #BuildingTheFutureTogether

❤️💛🐾 Building the Future Together: Planning for What's Next! 📚

We're kicking off the week by looking ahead at the future of Thomasville City Schools!

With guidance from the Georgia School Boards Association (GSBA), our district brought together administrators, teachers, parents, business and community partners, and STUDENTS for an important Strategic Planning Meeting!

Together, we reflected on where we've been, where we are, and where we want to go—sharing ideas, identifying opportunities for improvement, and discussing how we can continue building a stronger future for our entire Bulldog family.

From helping our students and staff succeed to strengthening the support and resources we provide our families and community, every perspective matters!

We especially LOVE having our students at the table, sharing their voices and helping shape the future of the schools they call home! ❤️💛

A BIG thank-you to GSBA and everyone who participated, shared ideas, and helped move this important work forward.

Our future is stronger when we build it TOGETHER! ❤️💛🐾

🍎❤️💛 Teacher Tuesday: Making Math Meaningful! 📐🐾

Our middle school math teachers are continuing to learn, grow, and find creative ways to bring math to life for our Bulldogs!

Recently, our educators participated in a professional learning session through Southwest Georgia RESA, exploring how Georgia's K–12 Mathematics Standards build and progress across grades 6–8.

Through hands-on activities and manipulatives, teachers strengthened their understanding of mathematical concepts while discovering engaging strategies they can bring right back into their classrooms! 📊✏️

We LOVE seeing our Bulldog educators invest in their own learning to create meaningful, interactive experiences for our students.

When our teachers grow, our Bulldogs grow! ❤️💛🐾

🚌❤️💛🐾 National School Bus Safety Week! 🛑

This week, Thomasville City Schools is celebrating National School Bus Safety Week and recognizing the important role school bus safety plays in getting our Bulldogs to and from school each day!

A BIG Bulldog thank-you to our TCS Transportation Team for their dedication to safely transporting our students, greeting them with a smile, and helping start and end each school day on a positive note! ❤️💛

🛑 A few important safety reminders for EVERYONE:

🚌 Drivers: Slow down in school zones, stay alert near bus stops, and ALWAYS stop for school buses when required by law.

🚸 Students: Stay back from the curb, wait for the driver's signal before crossing, and always follow bus safety rules.

❤️ Families: Take a moment to review bus stop safety with your children and remind them to stay alert around moving vehicles.

School bus safety is everyone's responsibility! Together, we can help keep our Bulldogs safe on every ride, every stop, and every school day.

Thank you, TCS Transportation, for keeping our Bulldogs rolling safely! ❤️💛🐾

🐾❤️💛 Saturday Shoutout: Welcome to NHS! 🎓

This Saturday, we’re giving a BIG Bulldog shoutout to 55 Thomasville High School students recently inducted into the Helen M. Fortney Chapter of the National Honor Society!

Representing the sophomore, junior, and senior classes, these students earned this recognition through their commitment to the four pillars of NHS: scholarship, service, leadership, and character.

The annual ceremony also included a special senior pinning for the Class of 2027, recognizing our senior NHS members as they continue their final year at THS. 🎓

Congratulations to our newest NHS members and seniors! We’re proud of you and the example you’re setting for your fellow Bulldogs! ❤️💛🐾

❤️💛🐾 Friday Feels: A Dream Years in the Making!

Some of the BEST Bulldog stories are about more than what happens in the classroom. They're about the dreams our students work toward and the people who help them get there.

For Thomasville High School student Nicholas Ricks, that dream was following in his father's footsteps and working in a grocery store. 🛒❤️

After years of developing life skills, job-readiness skills, and confidence through THS transition programming, Nicholas recently walked into Bob and Jeff's IGA for his very first job interview.

By noon, he had a job offer! 🎉

And the best part? After each shift, Nicholas has proudly shared with his supported-employment provider:

“Mrs. Ashley, I work hard today.” ❤️

Behind this milestone is a team of people who believed in Nicholas and helped him prepare for this moment—from Ms. Connery and his family to Joshua's Tree, GVRA, and our community partners.

This is what Bulldog +1 is all about: helping our students build the skills, confidence, and opportunities to succeed beyond graduation.

Nicholas, we are SO proud of you! Keep working hard and showing the world what Bulldogs can do! ❤️💛🐾

Once a Bulldog. Always a Bulldog.

🗺️❤️💛 Exploring the World, One Map at a Time! 🌎🐾

Our Jerger Elementary 5th-grade GATES students recently took geography learning to a whole new level!

To wrap up their map study unit, Mrs. Keaton’s students rotated through hands-on stations where they explored U.S. states and capitals, mapped countries around the world, tested their geography knowledge with Guess in 10, and even created their own topographical maps to better understand landforms and elevation! 📍⛰️

We LOVE seeing our students put their knowledge to work through creativity, critical thinking, teamwork, and problem-solving!

Way to go, Jerger! Keep exploring and learning! ❤️💛🐾

🌎🔬❤️💛 Real-World Science, Right in Our Backyard! 🐾

Our MacIntyre Park Middle School 7th graders are taking science beyond the classroom and into the creek!

Through a partnership with Georgia Adopt-A-Stream, Mrs. Russo’s Life Science students are conducting hands-on water quality testing at Sunbeam/Hero Creek in MacIntyre Park.

From testing water chemistry to collecting and identifying macroinvertebrates (small organisms living in the water), our Bulldogs are gathering REAL scientific data to help monitor the health of our local ecosystem! 💧🌿

This is more than a science lesson—students are becoming citizen scientists, using critical thinking, problem-solving, and real-world data to understand how environmental conditions affect the world around them.

A BIG Bulldog thank-you to Golden Triangle RC&D for donating the testing kits and Adopt-A-Stream Coordinator Julie Shutters for supporting this incredible learning experience!

🥗❤️💛 Celebrating National School Lunch Week! 🐾

Even though our Bulldogs are enjoying Fall Break, we couldn’t let National School Lunch Week pass without celebrating the incredible TCS School Nutrition staff who take care of our students every day!
Following a recent visit and hands-on learning with Georgia Department of Education School Nutrition Culinary Specialist Michael DuBose, our teams are already putting new ideas, techniques, and flavors into action—creating delicious meals for our Bulldogs. 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

But their impact goes far beyond what’s on the tray. ❤️
From our littlest Bulldogs in Pre-K to our biggest Bulldogs preparing for graduation, our School Nutrition staff helps make sure students are fed, cared for, and ready for the school day. They learn students’ names, greet them with a smile, encourage them, and help make our cafeterias a welcoming part of each school.
This week, we celebrate the people behind the meals. Thank you, Bulldog Nutrition, for feeding and taking care of our Bulldogs each and every day! ❤️💛🐾
