🌟 Our School Board Continues to Lead with Purpose! 🌟
Members of our district’s school board recently attended the TSBA Leadership Conference & Annual Convention at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center, and it was a powerful weekend focused on strengthening #leadership and elevating #student success across Tennessee.
Throughout the conference, board members attended inspiring keynotes, clinics and workshops, explored innovative ideas and celebrated the achievements of school leaders statewide. 💡📚
They also participated in the #TSBA Delegate Assembly, helping shape the association’s work for the coming year by electing officers, approving the strategic plan and voting on key resolutions.
We’re grateful for our board’s dedication to learning and advocating for our students, staff and community. Here’s to strong leadership and an even brighter year ahead!❤️✨

Each of our schools found meaningful ways to show their appreciation — from heartfelt messages to special gatherings that paid tribute to our Veterans.
We’re proud to share just a few highlights from across the district, because we truly love our Veterans! #ThankYou to everyone who helped make these celebrations so special!🫶

Thankful for the Kindness That Warms Our Students and Our Community🧥
Our community came together once again for the 3rd Annual Coat Drive hosted by New Vision Baptist Church, and thanks to your generosity, dozens of #students across #BedfordCountySchools will stay warm this winter. This year, an incredible 107 new coats—along with many more gently used ones—were donated to help keep kids cozy through the cold months. ❄️🧤
We want to send a special #ThankYou to New Vision Baptist Church and #CommunityHighSchool alumna Haley Mitchell for leading this heartwarming effort and inspiring others to give back.❤️Thank you to our maintenance team for pickup and delivery!
We are so grateful for the kindness, compassion and community spirit that make a difference every single year.
