During this season of thankfulness, I am happy to say we have much to be thankful for here in the White County school system. Our students are excelling academically with Math III having the highest growth in the state and English II scoring 6th in the state for growth. Our teachers are working harder than ever not only to educate our students but also to make sure they are warm and fed during this holiday season. Our staff works with servant-minded hearts each day, and for that, I could not be more thankful. I wish you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving!
Families who need assistance with winter clothing or food, please visit our family resource center for information about our clothing closet and food pantry. Family Resource Center

Parents, we noticed a Snapchat graphic being shared often last week regarding the dangers of Snapchat in school-aged children. Unfamiliar apps and social media can be intimidating to parents, so we wanted to remind you of a resource our county provides to help you navigate the different platforms students may be using.
White County Schools partnered with Family Zone, a leading provider of cyber safety products and education, to create an educational hub for parents and teachers. This hub includes articles, app reviews, and information like how to set up parental controls on devices at home to help protect and support your child. You can click on individual apps to learn the specific risks associated with each app. You can also learn app features and the meaning behind the lingo associated with each app.
You can access the online safety hub here:
