🌟 Student Voices in Action! 🌟

Yesterday, the Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council visited the Central Office to share their perspectives directly with Dr. Tammy Garrett, Superintendent, Mr. Tim Harwell, Assistant Superintendent, and Carol Garrette, Director of Communications.

This incredible #student group advocates for their peers, provides insight on district issues and helps shape solutions to challenges in Bedford County Schools. Their input ensures that #student voices are at the heart of our decisions. 💬✨

We are #BedfordProud to see our students taking such an active role in shaping the future of their schools!

✨ At #ShelbyvilleCentralHighSchool, #NationalHonorSociety students, under the guidance of instructor Claudia House, are already making a BIG impact this year! ✨

During Eagle Time, some #NHS #students are choosing to dedicate their time to projects that spread positivity and kindness across our school and community:

🧣 Knitting scarves to donate to the local soup kitchen
💌 Writing and decorating uplifting notes to brighten hallways during testing

During these times, Ms. House also adds her own thoughtful touch by sharing stress-relief tools on Fridays to help students recharge.

We’re so proud of these students for showing what it means to lead with service, compassion and school spirit.💙💛 Thank you for making SCHS a place where kindness and leadership soar! 🦅
