While your child is on break, we encourage you to take a “break from the screens” and read together. The Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) is partnering with Governor’s Early Literacy Foundation (GELF) to provide at-home reading resources for all Tennessee families of K–2 children for free. Based on a child’s grade level, they will receive an At-Home Decodable 7 Book Series and age-appropriate high-quality books from Scholastic.

It’s officially Fall Break, Choctaws! We will see you back on Monday, October 10, 2022. Enjoy your break.

UPDATE:We have worked closely with law enforcement. They were able to determine that the threat had nothing to do with our school system. We appreciate everyone's patience and cooperation.
