1st grader, Sage Rivera, had the surprise of her life today when her mother, US Army Staff Sergeant Sarda Harvey, came home after a year long deployment to Egypt. Running to her mom's arms, Sage's joy had everyone in tears. Welcome home, Sergeant, and thank you for your service!

Attention 4th grade parents - it's time to start planning the annual 5th grade trip to Washington, DC! Please come to the informational meeting on Tuesday, January 14, at 6pm in the TGS cafeteria to get all the details and have your questions answered by Five Star Travels. This meeting is open to all current Monroe County 4th graders, but if you are unable to attend, please email Ms. Web at jennifer.web@mcschools.org for all the information.
Special thanks to community business partner, Tabernacle Baptist Church, for the yummy breakfast and inspiring message from Landon Crenshaw to get 2025 off to a great start! In this new year, may we be grateful for the small things and see all things as gifts and as our purpose!
Students enrolled in the Monroe County School System were entered into a Christmas drawing on December 16, and today, two lucky students from each school received Christmas gifts from Malik Herring and Desmond Williams. As they are both busy at this time in the NFL season, their sweet moms delivered the blessings on their behalf to TGS students, Gracie Harris and Jaxon Slaton, both of whom were overwhelmed by the surprise and the abundance of gifts. We cannot thank these two hometown heroes enough for the generous way they pour back into our community and our students.
Join us in congratulating our TGS Instructional Coach, Mrs. Misti Tonn who just yesterday was awarded a generous $1500 grant from the Georgia Teachers Initiative Teacher Grants for Innovation the purpose of which is “to help Georgia public school teachers bring their creative ideas to life!”
Mrs. Tonn plans to use the grant money to fund her original “Phonics Power Packs” which she designed and will produce for our elementary school students. These will align with our district approach to teaching reading, “The Science of Reading” which studies how people learn to read. While SoR includes various aspects of reading, Mrs. Tonn’s “Phonics Power Packs” will concentrate on hands-on learning, phonemic awareness, and phonics fluency, as well as vocabulary and comprehension.
In conjunction with the Georgia Foundation for Public Education and College Football Playoff Foundation, the GaDOE is “committed to changing outlooks and improving outcomes for students in communities across the state” and believes that Mrs. Tonn’s grant-funded activities will certainly advance that mission.
Thanks, Mrs. Tonn, for your innovative ideas and for representing TGS so well!
