Toombs County Family,
We are headed BACK TO THE BENZ!
On Tuesday, December 16, 2025, our Toombs County Bulldogs will compete for the GHSA Class A Division 1 State Championship for the 2nd consecutive year. We are extremely proud of our football team for earning this opportunity, and equally proud of our band and cheerleaders who will join them and create lasting memories at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Because more than 150 students and staff must travel to Atlanta and be loaded on buses at designated times for the 2:00 p.m. game, we must adjust our school operations for that day.
The Toombs County School System will be closed on Tuesday, December 16, 2025. Regular operations will resume on Wednesday, December 17, 2025.
We apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause, and we appreciate your flexibility and support. We invite the entire Toombs County community to join us in Atlanta as we cheer on our Bulldogs in their pursuit of a State Championship. Please join me in wishing our football team, band, cheerleaders, and coaches the very best as they represent Toombs County with excellence.
Go Dogs!
Barry Waller, Superintendent

Don’t forget to join us for our Parent Appreciation Lunch today, November 20, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM at the Toombs County Board of Education Office.
Mrs. Christian’s AP Government & Politics class wrapped up our Supreme Court Case Bracket Battle! 👩🏽⚖️⚖️🚔 Students argued why their assigned case deserved the title of most significant in American history—and they showed up with strong, well-crafted arguments across all 15 cases. These are the landmark decisions they’re required to know for the AP Exam, and their well-developed arguments helped everyone understand and remember the cases even better! Ms. Anthony and Mrs. Ferrell were our judges this year! Georgia Lumley and Adrionna Blackwell (Schenck v. United States) faced off against Top Peterson and Lane Morris (Baker v. Carr) in the championship round. After an impressive final debate, Top and Lane took the win!
✨ Introducing TCHS Threads — our school’s new clothing closet on a mission! ✨

We’re now collecting gently used or new clothing, and your donations make this possible. Please check the guidelines in the graphics and drop items off at the TCHS Front Office.
