This week in Career Discovery, our students are putting their problem-solving and planning skills to the test with a hands-on Thanksgiving budgeting challenge! With a reduced budget and a focus on cooking at least three dishes from scratch, students are learning how to balance financial decisions, research recipes, and create a delicious menu for their immediate families.
By learning financial literacy skills like budgeting now, students are preparing for a successful future where they can confidently manage money, make informed choices, and prioritize their needs. These essential life skills will help them navigate real-world situations, from planning meals to managing personal finances as adults. We’re so proud of their creativity and practical learning this week!
Let's give thanks for Progress Reports!

🎵 Band Directors Lead by Example 🎵
At Toombs County, our band directors not only guide students in their musical journey but also continue to inspire students through their own performances!
🎻 Mr. Noah Bullard, our high school band director, performed with the Georgia Southern String Camerata, showcasing his dedication to excellence in music.
🎺 Mrs. Ashley Akridge, our middle school band director, brings her passion for performance to the Brewton-Parker Wind Ensemble, demonstrating the joy of lifelong musicianship.
We are proud to have such talented educators who lead by example, showing students that music truly is a lifelong endeavor! 🎶
