Our Teacher Cadets enjoyed reading their big books today at the Primary School. The big books they read were written and illustrated by them and their theme was self-esteem.
Anti-Bullying Summit with Ware Shoals School District Students
Very proud of these two students who have volunteered to lend a helping hand. They have put our district's mission of LEARNING, SERVING and LEADING into practice.
Your child’s daily, on-time attendance is critical to their success in school. Some challenges to your child’s school attendance may be unavoidable, but it is important to understand the impact of each absence. For more information go to http://absencesaddup.org/.
We remember...the victims and their families on this day. We thank all first responders for running toward danger, serving others with courage and bravery. Today....we remember.
We will live-stream a brief ceremony at 8:35 today.
