Recently, our dedicated administrators, school counselors and social workers came together at the School Counselor and Administrator Leadership Institute (SCALI) to grow, learn and connect. 💼✨🤝
At SCALI, participants dove into critical topics like mental health 🧠, student safety 🛡️, career exploration 🚀 and so much more. These workshops equip our team with the tools and insights they need to support #student well-being, guide growth and create safe, thriving learning environments. 🌱🏫💡
We’re so proud of our team for investing in professional development that strengthens our entire school community. Together, we’re shaping brighter futures for every student. 💙🎓

Recently #CommunityHighSchool’s Leadership class launched an exciting new project: Creating Community!
This initiative is designed to connect current high school leaders with 8th graders at #CommunityMiddleSchool to help build relationships and create a bridge to high school. 🙌
To kick things off, the Leadership Class welcomed the future high schoolers with small-group activities and lunch together. The day was filled with enthusiasm as participants engaged in conversations and learned more about life at the high school. 🎉
Monthly visits are planned throughout the year, all focused on strengthening connections and providing support as these #students prepare for their transition.
We are so #BedfordProud of our young leaders for showing what COMMUNITY looks like in action! 💪💛💜

The Tennessee Investment in Student Achievement (TISA) public school funding formula marks a significant change in how Tennessee invests in public education. As part of TISA, T.C.A. § 49-3-112 requires each school district to submit an annual accountability report to #TDOE. Each district's TISA accountability report is required to be presented to the public for review & comment before the report is submitted to TDOE.

✨ Sometimes the sweetest moments happen when you least expect them! 💕 While Rita Bates was hard at work cleaning the windows at #EakinElementarySchool🏫 today, she had an extra special visitor wander over to see what was happening—a curious little fawn 🦌💛.
The two shared a quiet moment together 🌿🤍 that reminded us all how wonderful it is to pause and notice the simple joys around us. From classrooms full of learning 📚✨ to unexpected wildlife friends 🐾, our schools are always full of surprises that make us smile 😊🌟.
Here’s to finding beauty in the little things, wherever we are. 🦌💫🌸

Recently, #CascadeHighSchool #FCCLA members rolled up their sleeves to make a difference! 💪❤️ Together with the nonprofit Sleep in Heavenly Peace, they spent Saturday morning building beds for local children who don’t have one of their own.
These beds mean more than just a good night’s sleep—they bring comfort, security and dignity to kids right here in our community. 🛏️💤
As Sleep in Heavenly peace reminds us: “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town!” And thanks to the hard work of our amazing #students, more children will now have a safe place to rest their heads. 🌟
We are so proud of these FCCLA members for living out the values of service, leadership and compassion. What an incredible way to give back!💕🫶
