🚨👮‍♂️✨ Chief Casey Cope and the Brooks County School District Police Department are kicking off America's Safe Schools Week! 🚸 Let's work together to keep our schools safe and secure for all students and staff. 💪📚 Stay tuned for tips and activities throughout the week! 🏫❤️ 🎥⬇️ https://5il.co/2z6lj

🌟 Did you know that Brooks County School District is now a Leader in Me district? 🌟 All of our schools have embarked on a journey to transform into Leader in Me schools. Last year, Quitman Elementary School and Brooks County High School began this exciting process, and this year, all other schools in the district have joined in. 🚀 The Leader in Me is a whole-school transformation initiative designed to teach students essential leadership and life skills for the 21st century. It fosters a culture of student empowerment by embracing the belief that every child has the potential to be a leader. 👏✨ A key aspect of Leader in Me is the integration of content from The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. These habits represent timeless principles like responsibility, integrity, teamwork, and collaboration. 🤝💡 As we introduce these habits into our school communities, we encourage you to discuss these concepts at home with your children. 💬👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 We’ll also be hosting informational nights for parents and guardians as we continue to grow together. 🌱

🎃🍂🍁Just a little reminder! 🎃🍂🍁

We are getting to the point in the year where we start seeing more absences due to illness. Please remind your students to keep their hands washed regularly, cover their mouths when coughing and get plenty of sleep among other ways to stay healthy. The full attendance protocol is in the student handbook on the Brooks County School District's website, but here is a visual that may help. If you have questions about attendance, please call the attendance clerk for your student's school.

📣Join us in celebrating this Rising Trojan! 📣 Ms.Carli Wheeler is a first year teacher at North Brooks Elementary School, but she is not new to understanding just how wonderful it is to be a Brooks County Trojan, and she has started her Liam off on the right start as he recently began his academic journey at our Early Learning Center! We are so thankful for all of our educators, but it is truly special to see our graduates choose to return home to give back to the very place that helped shape them into the phenomenal world changers they are today! "Ms. Wheeler is a BCHS alumni who chose to return to Brooks County to begin her teaching career. She completed her student teaching at NBES, and she fit in from the beginning. She was always willing to help out wherever and whenever she was needed, even making the 3rd grade team different t-shirts every day of testing week last year. She is now a 2nd grade teacher and an assistant BCMS softball coach. She has had a great start to the school year, earning praise from her co-workers and administrators alike. We can't wait to watch her continue to grow and personify the phrase, "Once a Trojan, Always a Trojan!" #SaturdaySpotlight #TrojanTeacherOnTheRise
