Quitman Elementary School recently hosted its annual Black History Program, Celebrating 100 Years of Black History. The program honored the rich legacy, resilience, and achievements of African Americans while spotlighting the incredible talents of our students. Throughout the month, students engaged in poetry and writing contests that encouraged a deeper understanding of Black history. During the program, winners were recognized and celebrated for their outstanding work. The event also featured dynamic student performances filled with music, speeches, and powerful presentations. What made the event even more special was that it was entirely student-led—an authentic reflection of the Leader in Me culture embedded at QES. Our students confidently served as hosts, speakers, performers, and organizers, demonstrating leadership, responsibility, and pride in every aspect of the program. QES would like to extend a special Trojan thank you to our guest speakers, Mr. Lamar Thomas and Dr. Todd Cason, for inspiring our students to give their best each day. #BESTOFBROOKS
We are thankful for staff members who are committed to improving leadership opportunities in our schools!
Bravo, North Brooks Elementary! 🎭✨
Our district was treated to a front-row seat at "The Sounds of Broadway," a stunning Black History Month celebration put on by the talented NBES fifth-grade class. From the revolutionary spirit of Hamilton to the high-energy rhythms of Hairspray, these students proved that "Good Things Grow Here" every single day.
We are incredibly proud of these young performers for their courage, dedication, and for honoring history through the power of the arts.
Huge thanks to Ms. Cain and the exploratory team for their vision and for fostering such incredible talent in our schools! 🌟🎶

We had a fantastic turnout for the Youth Art Month Exhibit opening reception at the Turner Center for the Arts. A huge shoutout to our artists from NBES, QES, BCMS, and BCHS for representing our schools so well.
From the 25 vibrant pieces chosen from each elementary and middle school to the 5 elite juried selections from BCHS, the gallery was bursting with Brooks County pride. It’s a joy to see our students’ hard work hanging on the gallery walls!
Stop by the Turner Center to see their masterpieces in person. 🖼️

A massive round of applause for our Brooks County Middle School and Brooks County High School bands! They traveled to the Georgia Bandmasters Association Competition this week and absolutely blew us away.
Each band prepared three pieces for a panel of three judges, and they represented Brooks County with total class and talent. There’s nothing like the sound of all that hard work paying off on stage! 🎶✨
We love seeing our musicians step into the spotlight and compete at this level. Congratulations to all our performers and directors!
