School Bus Safety Week is a reminder to everyone about the importance of following the law and implementing school bus safety tips. Parents should be able to trust that when their child gets on the school bus, there is no need to worry about their safety. If everyone follows school bus safety rules, every child will stay safe.

Statement from the Superintendent:
It is with deep sadness that I share the news of the passing of one of our beloved teachers, Lesley McCollum. She was a valued member of our school community whose dedication, compassion, and commitment to students left a lasting impact on all who knew her.
Our hearts go out to Lesley’s family, friends, colleagues, and students during this incredibly difficult time. We recognize that this loss affects many in our community, and we are committed to providing support and resources for those in need.
Counselors will be available at Hackleburg Elementary in the coming days to support students and staff. We encourage anyone who needs to talk or seek help to reach out.
We will continue to honor Lesley’s legacy in the days ahead. Please join us in keeping her loved ones in your thoughts.

Marion County teachers dug into learning at STEM in the Garden, enjoying three energizing main sessions and two hands-on breakout sessions—all while earning CEUs for professional development! Twenty of our educators had the chance to step outside the classroom and into new experiences. We’re grateful for our strong partnership with Live Well Alabama and Marion County Extension for making outreach events like this possible for our schools! Thank you, Northwest RC&D, NRCS, Marion County Extension, Live Well Alabama, Factory Falls Apiary, and the Marion County Commission for investing in the education of our students for a more sustainable future.
