We have started a website called “Story Time with Towns County Schools” to share read aloud videos in an effort to promote literacy. This site is growing daily! We hope you enjoy seeing educators from all three TC schools share stories. Reading aloud to children is a research based strategy that improves a variety of literacy skills for students of all ages. We currently have 18 story videos and will continue to add more as they are recorded.
Happy Reading Everyone!

Efforts by Towns County Schools to Prevent Coronavirus

Coronavirus is something that is on everyone's mind with the recent increase of confirmed cases around the world and in our own country. Towns County Schools will continually monitor the situation and take steps to prevent disease transmission.

Attached are three documents that will provide more information about disease control prevention procedures, facts about the disease to debunk any myths, and a letter to educators from the department of health.

We are sharing this information with you to keep you informed about the current steps that are being taken. Thank you for taking the time to read through these documents.
