🚍 Stuff the Bus for Hurricane Relief 🚍 Tift County is all about coming together to make a difference! 💙 Recently, we had the privilege to "Stuff the Bus" with donations to support neighboring counties in their recovery efforts. While we’re often competing with schools like Irwin, Fitzgerald, and Lowndes on the field or in the classroom, this was a powerful reminder that we’re all part of one big South Georgia family. 🏆 Thank you Tift County High School for coordinating this effort and to everyone who contributed! Your generosity shows the true spirit of #4theT and the strength of our community, united to help students and families in need. TOGETHER, we make an impact that goes beyond any scoreboard. 🌟 #SouthGeorgiaStrong

HOSA & FCCLA students took a big step toward helping JTR 4th graders understand the importance of staying safe and healthy by learning about drug awareness! Teaching kids at an early age to make informed choices empowers them to lead brighter, drug-free lives. From understanding the dangers of harmful substances to practicing how to say 'NO' confidently, these students are learning valuable life skills that will guide them through the future. #4theT #LetsGrowTogether
