The 2024 Gordon County Schools Summer Feeding Program starts June 3rd through July 18th! This program serves our community by providing no-cost, healthy meals and snacks to children ages 0-18. Food will be offered Monday through Thursday each week, and Thursdays will include Friday, Saturday, and Sunday meals. Please note that all sites will be closed July 4th and 5th. Food pickup locations are at Tolbert Elementary and Sonoraville High School from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Gordon County Schools will also have vans and buses delivering meals to our Mobile Locations marked with yard signs that read, "This is a Gordon County Summer Feeding Site." Listen for the honking horns as notification of arrival and please be patient as times will vary by each location. After the first week, we will announce more exact times for the Mobile Locations as our feeding staff workers learn and finalize their routes. Check out the flyer for more information! The Gordon County Schools Nutrition Department, partnered with our Transportation Department, looks forward to serving families with nutritious meal options at no cost during the summer months.

Happy Mother's Day!!

Congratulations to the C.H.A.M.P.S. 5th grade graduates at Tolbert Elementary! The C.H.A.M.P.S. (Choosing Healthy Activities and Methods Promoting Safety) program in Gordon County Schools is a partnership between the Gordon County Sheriff's Department and our elementary schools, serving to help empower our youth with valuable life skills and knowledge to make informed choices and contribute positively to their communities. Lieutenant Brian Brannon congratulated these 5th graders who participated in the program. Thank you Lt. Brannon and the GCSD for educating and empowering our students and community through our law enforcement partnerships.

Tolbert Families, We've been closely monitoring the weather forecast for our upcoming field days. Unfortunately, the forecast predicts inclement weather for Tuesday, May 14, 2024. Therefore, we've decided to combine both field days into one event, which will now take place on Monday, May 13th, 2024. Start time: 8:30 am Check-in: Front office with a photo ID We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but our priority is to ensure that our students have a fun, safe, and memorable field day experience to close out the 2023-2024 school year. Thank you for your understanding and continued support! Tolbert Field Day Committee
