Recently, our #students were treated to an unforgettable experience thanks to Cooper Steel and their incredible Twelve12 Legacy program.
Through this program, high school students mentor elementary students, focusing on academic growth, character development and the values of hard work, kindness and integrity — making a real difference in our community. 🤝🌟
To celebrate, Cooper Steel hosted a generous luncheon sponsored by Rowdy Ranch for our high school students 🍽️ and welcomed the inspiring Inky Johnson to share his powerful message with our students. As Inky stated, "I always had people in my life who saw things in me I didn’t see in myself." 💫
The Twelve12 Legacy program gives students that same opportunity — to see their own potential and believe in themselves. 🌟Moments like this leave everyone full of motivation, encouragement and connection that lasts a lifetime.
We want to send a huge #ThankYou to Cooper Steel! 💛 Your dedication to supporting and uplifting our students is truly creating a full-circle impact that will last for generations to come. 🌍✨

Did you know it takes 21 days for a chick to hatch from an egg 🥚➡️🐥 — and that chicks can actually hear and respond to sounds while still inside the egg? 🎶 Mrs. Shelby Summer’s 2nd graders at #EastSideElementarySchool do!
This week, #students are diving into the science of life cycles 🌱🔍, observing eggs up close in their classroom incubator. Alongside their reading 📖✨, they’re tracking the changes day by day—learning patience, responsibility and a little bit of farm science too.
It’s hands-on, memorable learning at its best—and soon, the classroom will be filled with tiny chirps 🐣🎶 as the eggs hatch! What an egg-stra special way to bring science to life for our students. 🌟💛

Recently #CommunityHighSchool’s Leadership class launched an exciting new project: Creating Community!
This initiative is designed to connect current high school leaders with 8th graders at #CommunityMiddleSchool to help build relationships and create a bridge to high school. 🙌
To kick things off, the Leadership Class welcomed the future high schoolers with small-group activities and lunch together. The day was filled with enthusiasm as participants engaged in conversations and learned more about life at the high school. 🎉
Monthly visits are planned throughout the year, all focused on strengthening connections and providing support as these #students prepare for their transition.
We are so #BedfordProud of our young leaders for showing what COMMUNITY looks like in action! 💪💛💜

The Tennessee Investment in Student Achievement (TISA) public school funding formula marks a significant change in how Tennessee invests in public education. As part of TISA, T.C.A. § 49-3-112 requires each school district to submit an annual accountability report to #TDOE. Each district's TISA accountability report is required to be presented to the public for review & comment before the report is submitted to TDOE.
