Tift Schools Pre-K partnered with Maggie Campbell’s Daycare and Daisy Darlings Daycare for a wonderful Early Literacy Workshop. Corine Alt led an engaging session, “Talk to Me: Building Strong Oral Language Foundations for Birth–5-Year-Old Children.”

Participants not only gained valuable strategies to support early language development, but also enjoyed dinner and received take-home packets filled with resources to use in their classrooms.

Thank you to everyone who made this event such a success and for your continued dedication to our youngest learners! If you are interested in attending our next event in April, please reach out to Dr. Kim Ezekiel, Early Learning and Family Engagement Coordinator.

After consulting with the Emergency Management Agency and other local authorities, Tift County Schools will be closed tomorrow, Monday, March 16, 2026, due to the potential for severe weather. A strong storm system is projected to arrive in our area around 5:00AM and is expected to be cleared out of the area around noon.
The current forecast calls for widespread damaging winds with gusts of 60–70 mph, along with the possibility of tornadoes and large hail. Temperatures will drop significantly after the front moves through, so families should plan for freezing temperatures on Tuesday morning and ensure students are dressed appropriately.
The safety of our students and staff is our highest priority. Therefore, all schools will be closed and all athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled for Monday, March 16, 2026.
We encourage everyone to stay weather aware and take necessary precautions. Any additional updates will be shared through the district’s communication channels.
