It was a beautiful morning to gather at the flagpole for the annual “Meet at the Pole” day, sponsored by FCA

Safety Awareness Month Message:
September is recognized across the state of Georgia as Safety Awareness Month. During this time, we are conducting intruder, lockdown and other safety drills on our school campuses. In Decatur County Schools, we take this opportunity to educate and equip our students to respond quickly and safely to any and all emergency situations. Safety is and will always be our number one priority in Decatur County Schools.

Crowning memories and shining smiles!

BMS FCA Meet at the Flagpole Information.

Homecoming week was an amazing experience—many thanks to FCA for sponsoring Spirit Days!

We are proud of the students in Mr. Cole's Agriculture class at Bainbridge Middle School for applying their skills in a meaningful way! They successfully assembled new rolling desks for our teachers and constructed tables for the new greenhouse. This hands-on experience not only enhances their learning but also contributes to our school community.







Thank you Southwest Baptist for our midweek treat!

Honoring Officer Fletcher on National Police Woman Day—thank you for keeping our students and staff safe each day!

🌟 Classroom Spotlight: Mrs. Schaaf’s 6th Graders + Magic School Study Bot! 🌟
This week, Mrs. Schaaf’s 6th-grade class turned test review into an adventure with the Magic School Study Bot! Instead of a traditional study guide, students explored their review material in an interactive and engaging way with the help of AI.
By the end of the lesson, students weren’t just reviewing for the test—they were thinking critically, collaborating, and realizing that AI can be a creative tool for learning. Mrs. Schaaf’s classroom showed that studying doesn’t have to be stressful when you add a little ✨magic✨ to the mix!
