Our commitment to student safety extends beyond the school walls.

This ensures the safety of our students, staff, and families as they enter and exit our campuses. #SafetyFirst #4theT
Student and Staff safety is our top priority. That's why we conduct monthly safety drills in all our schools. Over the course of the year, our drills include fire drills, lockdown drills, severe weather drills, and evacuation drills. These drills ensure that students and staff are well-prepared to respond effectively in case of an emergency. #SafetyFirst #4theT
🏈 Beyond the T Moment 🏈
A special shout-out to Pernell Bee, Carrie Macdonald, Charly Pitts, Andrew Cauthen, Hunter McAllister, and Paul Nelson for making a dream come true for Sam Powell, a student at Eighth Street Middle School! At a recent football game, Sam put on a Blue Devil jersey, joined the team in the locker room before the game and at half time then following the last play of the game he ran a play with the the whole team cheering him on. Tonight he helped present certificates to each of those who helped make this possible and even showed everyone in attendance some of his football skills! This incredible group effort captures the true spirit of going #BeyondTheT.
