Today, we had the honor of hosting Georgia Senator Chuck Payne (District 54) at Belwood Elementary during Georgia Pre-K Week! Senator Payne spent time with our youngest learners, sharing the importance of reading and getting an education.
Our Pre-K students loved hearing Senator Payne read two books: Malcolm Mitchell's "A Magnificent Field Trip to the Governor's Mansion" and the Sesame Street classic, "The Monster at the End of This Book." They were laughing at the funny voices and had a great time. We appreciate Bright from the Start Pre-K Specialist Jae Boyd for being a guest listener today.
When Senator Payne finished reading, he gave all the students a big hug and shared positive words about their futures when they work hard and strive to be good readers.
We are so grateful for Senator Payne’s dedication to fostering a love of reading in our students. His visit was a reminder of the lasting impact a good book and an inspiring role model can have on a child's education. Thank you, Senator Payne, for your support of our students and their futures!

Last week, Sonoraville High School teacher Katie Farley and district Educational Diagnostician Natasha Hall took students from both high schools on a tour of the GNTC Floyd campus through the High School High Tech program.
They were able to explore these program areas: healthcare, welding, cosmetology, auto collision repair, instrumentation and controls, and auto fundamentals. This looked like an extremely informative and interactive tour, and we appreciate these educators giving students opportunities to explore future potential careers.

Red Bud Elementary opened up its SOAR Store yesterday! Students were able to walk through and shop with their hard-earned behavior points. Our Cardinals do an excellent job in and out of the classroom, and that is reinforced with this behavior perk that celebrates those who are doing their very best to learn and help others.
The SOAR Store would not be possible without the supportive partnerships of our outstanding local businesses, families, and friends. Red Bud Elementary appreciates everything you do for their school community!
Here are just some of the amazing partnerships that help make Red Bud Elementary GREAT:
