Scott Elementary School

📚❤️💛 October is National Principals Month! 🐾

We’re kicking off October by celebrating the dedicated leaders who help guide our schools, support our teachers and staff, encourage our students, and strengthen our school communities every day!
Throughout National Principals Month, we’re proud to recognize our Thomasville City Schools principals and school leaders:

❤️ Pamela Cloud — Harper Elementary School
💛 Emily Newman — Jerger Elementary School
❤️ Carie Young — Scott Elementary School
💛 Kiel Angry — Thomasville City Performance Center
❤️ Dr. Christina Isaac — MacIntyre Park Middle School
💛 Dr. Artez Sims — Scholars Academy
❤️ Charlotte Donald — Thomasville High School

Leadership in a school reaches far beyond the office. It’s showing up for students, supporting teachers, connecting with families, solving problems, celebrating successes, and helping create a place where students can learn and grow.
Thank you for leading, serving, and making a difference for our Bulldogs each and every day! ❤️💛🐾

That "Yee haw!" moment made the whole trip unforgettable 🤠✨
Mrs. Grace’s class spent the day at Hands and Hearts for Horses — laughter, learning, and one student who couldn’t help but shout “Yee haw!” while riding. Pure school-day magic. 🐴💫

Students in Mrs. West and Ms. Davis' Pre-K class enjoyed tasting guacamole after listening to the read aloud, "Holy Squawkamole: The Little Red Hen Makes Guacamole".

Curious minds + a little muscle = butter! 🧈😊 Ms. Blake’s second graders had a blast in today’s STEM activity where they turned cream into butter by shaking jars. Students explored science in a hands-on way, practiced teamwork, and left with tasty results!

Curious minds at work! 🔎 Today our students stepped into the role of scientific investigators through a four-part framework to solve the case of Evidence vs. Assumption. They examined clues, asked thoughtful questions, analyzed information, and used evidence to decide what was fact and what was an assumption. Through collaboration and critical thinking, our young investigators cracked the case! 🧠🔬

Storytime + pancakes = pure classroom magic! ✨🥞

Mrs. West & Ms. Davis’s Pre-K class listened to The Little Red Hen and If You Give a Pig a Pancake — then jumped into the kitchen to mix, pour, cook, and taste their very own pancakes. Pure joy, messy hands, big smiles, and learning everywhere: literacy, motor skills, following steps, and teamwork. ❤️👩‍🍳📚

Who knew place value could be this delicious? 🍩

Ms. Cooper's first grade class turned math into a pastry party — students used donuts to build numbers from 100 to 120, with “tens” as sprinkle-stacked donuts and “ones” as single sprinkles. It was hands-on, visual, and full of giggles!

Did someone say cozy reading day? 😊 Mrs. Manning’s 4th graders spent the day curled up with a good book—wearing PJs and snuggling their favorite stuffed animals while enjoying a story together. 📚🧸✨

A moment of remembrance from our littlest learners: PreK students wore red, white, and blue to honor 9/11. 🇺🇸✨ Soft hands, strong hearts — teaching respect and remembrance, one small step at a time.
