A huge THANK YOU to our amazing community partners at the Putnam County Fire Department for helping make our Putnam County Middle School September House Celebration so much fun!

Our firefighters spent time meeting students and staff, handing out prizes, and joining in on the excitement with games like tug-of-war and half-court basketball shots. We even had one student sink an incredible half-court shot! 🏀

Events like these are about more than just fun. They help our students build meaningful connections with the public servants who work every day to keep our community safe. Positive relationships with local firefighters and first responders help students see the important role they play and inspire a greater sense of community and service.

Thank you again to the members of the Putnam County Fire Department for your service, sacrifice, and dedication to our community. We are grateful for your partnership and the positive impact you make on our students. ❤️🚒

READ 180 Scholars Continue Culinary Adventures
Students in Mrs. Elizabeth Harkins' READ 180 class continue to expand their horizons by exploring new foods and cuisines. As part of their ongoing efforts to learn about nutrition and healthy eating, scholars recently had the opportunity to sample rainbow carrots provided by Mrs. Teena Carr.
The colorful carrots sparked excitement and curiosity as students discovered that carrots can be purple, yellow, white, and orange. Before tasting them, scholars learned about the many health benefits of rainbow carrots, which are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and nutrients that support overall health and wellness.
Mrs. Carr shared information about the nutritional value of rainbow carrots and encouraged students to be open to trying new foods. Many scholars were eager to sample the vibrant vegetables, while others demonstrated courage by stepping outside their comfort zones to taste something unfamiliar.
Under the guidance of Mrs. Elizabeth Harkins, the activity connected literacy, learning, and healthy living. Students engaged in discussions about nutrition, food choices, and the importance of maintaining a balanced diet.
The experience was another successful step in the READ 180 program's mission to encourage curiosity, build confidence, and expose scholars to new experiences. By trying rainbow carrots, students learned that healthy foods can be both nutritious and colorful, making learning a truly rewarding adventure.

We LOVE our Putnam Pieces Videocast filming days! 🎥

One of the best parts of creating Putnam Pieces is getting to roam the halls of our schools and showcase the incredible things happening across PCCSS. Today was packed with inspiring stories, meaningful conversations, and amazing opportunities to see our students and staff in action!

🐾At Putnam County Primary School, we explored the district's commitment to mental health and had the pleasure of meeting Charlie the Therapy Dog!
🧘 At Putnam County Elementary School, we got in touch with our "zen" side while touring the new Zen Den, a calming space designed to support students' sensory and emotional needs.
🔧 At Putnam County Middle School, we saw firsthand how a grant from the Putnam Education Foundation helped expand the school's Makerspace and the incredible hands-on learning experiences students are enjoying because of it.
🍎 At Putnam County High School, we sat down with Ms. Ravi Hudson to hear her inspiring journey and learn more about her recognition as a GaTAPP Ambassador.

Days like this remind us just how special our schools are and how many incredible stories are unfolding every day. We can't wait to share these upcoming Putnam Pieces episodes with you!

📺 Stay tuned over the coming months as these stories premiere. Trust us, you won't want to miss them!

The success of Putnam County Charter School Nutrition Director Teena Carr's weekly Wellness Classes at Putnam County Elementary School has been so exciting that Putnam County Middle School wanted to join in on the fun! Last week, Mrs. Carr visited two of Mrs. Harkins' classes and introduced students to a fruit that was completely new to them: star fruit! 🌟

Not a single student in the classes had ever tried star fruit before, but by the end of the lesson, students were asking for extra samples and leaving with a new favorite snack.

That's exactly what these wellness classes are all about: expanding students' minds and palates, encouraging them to step outside their comfort zones, and helping them discover healthy foods they may never have considered trying. Through hands-on experiences like these, students are learning that healthy choices can be both fun and delicious!

Way to go, Mrs. Carr and Mrs. Harkins, for helping our students explore, learn, and grow one bite at a time!
