Message from
the Superintendent
Since the establishment of the Towns County School
System in 1856, the residents of this community have
provided their young people with an educational
experience focused on academic success. This emphasis on
a quality educational experience was important to those
who established our schools and continues today. Our
mission statement; "to ensure that all students achieve
at their highest potential" focuses on each student’s
ability to succeed at a higher level.
Our staff of dedicated professionals work with
individual students to enhance their educational
experience. Our small size and rural environment
reinforces this emphasis on the individual learner. We,
as an educational community, are privileged to work with
the students of Towns County.
Please feel free to contact us should you have any
concerns or suggestions as you travel through this
virtual reflection of our schools. |
