Turn the page, Georgia. 🍑

Georgia Reads Day launches Georgia Reads Week with one simple challenge: take a few minutes to read with a child or share a favorite story. As you read, ask, “What do you think will happen next?” One book and one moment together can help build stronger readers, families and communities.

Share your reading moment and invite someone else to join.

Georgia Reads Week - Monday
Thank You for Keeping Georgia Reading.


Behind every growing reader is an educator who encouraged one more page, introduced one more story and helped build one more moment of confidence.

This Georgia Reads Day, we celebrate Georgia’s teachers, media specialists and school leaders for creating classrooms where curiosity grows and reading comes to life. Thank you for helping students discover the knowledge, imagination and possibilities found in every book.

Talk More. Sing More. Read More.

Your voice is one of your child’s most powerful learning tools. Talking through everyday moments, singing favorite songs and reading together help newborns and young children build language, strengthen connections and develop skills that support lifelong learning.

Healthcare providers, caregivers and families all play an important role. Start early, make it part of every day and remember: every word makes a difference.

🔬💙 True Blue Dads Crew: Science, Fun & Family! 💙🔬

Yesterday afternoon, our True Blue Dads Crew gathered at NEMS for an afternoon filled with science, laughter, learning, and family fun! 🧪👨‍👧‍👦

Dads and their students teamed up to conduct fun science experiments, explore, learn, and enjoy quality time together. The experiments were a success—and the smiles and laughter made it even better! 😄🔬

Of course, we also enjoyed some snacks along the way! 🍿🍪

We love seeing our NEMS families come together, make memories, and stay connected to our school community. Thank you to all of our True Blue Dads and families for making the afternoon so much fun! 💙😈

Learning Healthcare Through a Different Lens! 🩺

Healthcare students from Eighth Street Middle School (ESMS) and Northeast Middle School (NEMS) had an exciting opportunity Tuesday to participate in the Journey Through Justice program at the State Bar of Georgia!

Students participated in an interactive law lesson exploring technology and its connection to legal and ethical issues in healthcare. They learned how healthcare professionals must navigate important responsibilities involving patient privacy, technology, ethics, and the law.

After the lesson, students put their new knowledge into action by participating in a mock trial, giving them a firsthand look at how legal concepts can apply to real-world healthcare situations.

What an incredible opportunity for our future healthcare professionals to learn, think critically, and experience healthcare beyond the classroom! 🩺⚖️📚

📚 Georgia Reads Day is September 21st!

On September 21st Tift County will join other communities across Georgia celebrating Georgia Reads Day, kicking off Georgia Reads Week, September 21st – 25th.

Georgia Reads Day is an opportunity for everyone to celebrate literacy by sharing a simple, meaningful moment with a child, family member, student, neighbor, or friend. You do not need a special event, a classroom, or even a new book!

💬 A conversation is a literacy moment.
🎶 A song is a literacy moment.
📖 A story is a literacy moment.
📚 A trip to the library is a literacy moment.

Follow us on social media and throughout the week we will share literacy activities you can enjoy at home with your child. Every literacy moment helps build the skills, confidence, and curiosity children need to become lifelong learners.

📣 Communication in Action! 🎉 Our 7th Grade Communications students are learning about the different types of communication—and today, they put nonverbal communication to the test! 🤫👀 After learning how facial expressions, gestures, and body language can communicate messages without words, students had some fun putting those skills into practice with a game of Heads Up! 🗣️➡️🙌 Learning communication skills doesn’t always have to look like a traditional lesson! 💙📚 Thanks Ms. Gann! #NEMS #BlueDevils #7thGrade #Communications #LearningInAction #NonverbalCommunication

🧪☕ Science was brewing at NEMS! Our 7th graders brought cells to life during the Cell-Bucks Cell Analogies Lab in the media center. Students connected cell organelles to jobs in a coffee shop, making it easier to see how each part has a different role—but works together to keep the whole system running.

A fun way to think critically, work collaboratively, and make real-world connections! 🔬💡
