North Tattnall Middle Named Silver Star School for ‘Georgia Schools Care’ Cause

North Tattnall Middle School was recently recognized for the efforts of both staff and students to give back to those in need.

State School Superintendent Richard Woods announced the schools Monday in touting the success of the Georgia Department of Education’s statewide service initiative, Georgia Schools Care, held from November 8 through December 15, 2023. This annual initiative brought together the entire educational family, including students and staff, fostering a sense of community and support for a shared cause.

Georgia Schools Care aimed to unite Georgia’s education family in a collective effort to impact the lives of others positively. During the initiative, participants joined forces to raise an impressive total of more than $43,600. The funds collected were directed towards supporting disadvantaged children through a partnership with Clark’s Christmas Kids.

The Silver Star School designation was reserved for participation between 50 and 69%, based on a minimum $1 donation by both students and staff.

North Tattnall Middle School was the only school in the area to receive a designation at any level.
