☀️ THE SUN! We almost forgot what it looked like. 😂
After what feels like approximately 47 straight days of rain, Mother Nature is finally giving us a beautiful fall Friday night for some Savage Football! 🏈💛🖤
One tiny favor before you head to Savage Field tonight: be kind to our grass.
We know parking along the hill is part of Friday night tradition, and we're not trying to mess with a good thing. Just keep in mind that after all this rain, the ground is still pretty soft. Please use a little extra care when parking, avoid hopping curbs or pulling into grassy areas that aren't normally used for parking, and help us avoid turning our campus into a mud bog.
Our Maintenance crew—and our grass—thank you.
See you under the Friday night lights as our Savannah Savages take on the Cameron Dragons! 🏈

💛🖤 There’s no place like HOME.
Homecoming is about more than a football game, a parade or a week of dress-up days. It’s about coming home.
At our Back-to-School Rally in August, we gathered members of our SR3 Family who once sat in our classrooms as students—and came back to serve the district that helped shape them.
And would you look at that crew. 💛
From classrooms and offices to buses, buildings and everything in between, these Savannah alumni are still reppin’ the black and gold — just from a different seat these days.
On Homecoming Friday, we can’t think of a better reminder:
Once a Savage. Always a Savage. And sometimes… you come HOME. 🖤💛
Happy Homecoming, Savannah!

This is what Friday Night Lights look like in Savage Country. 🏈💛
The players on the field. The cheerleaders on the sidelines. The students in the stands. The families and fans who show up week after week.
Friday nights in Savannah are about more than football — they're about community.
We're proud to join @savannahsavagefb and @savcheerteam in showing @TMobile what makes Savage Nation special.

Got a SchoolStatus Connect invitation today? It’s really us!
Savannah R3 sent a new round of invitations today to families who haven't yet joined SchoolStatus Connect. We know an unexpected email or text with a link can look suspicious, so we wanted to confirm that these messages are legitimate.
SchoolStatus Connect is our district-approved two-way communication platform used by schools, teachers, coaches and sponsors to share updates and communicate with students and families.
One quick note: If your student has already graduated or is no longer enrolled at SR3 and you received an invitation, you can disregard it. We're looking into why a few inactive records were included.

1 Day to Go!
🎒 TOMORROW. IS. THE. DAY.
One more sleep, SR3 Family! A little prep tonight can make tomorrow morning a whole lot easier:
👕 Lay out the first-day outfit.
🎒 Pack the backpack.
🥪 Pack the lunch — and make sure they can open it. 😉
📸 Print that First Day of School sign and pick the perfect picture spot.
🚌 Double-check the morning transportation plan.
⏰ Set the alarm. Maybe two.
😴 And then... GET SOME SLEEP!
Parents, you've done the shopping, filled out the forms, attended the events, figured out the bus routes, and somehow made it through another summer.
We've got it from here.
Our staff will be ready and waiting when the doors open at 7:15 tomorrow morning. We can't wait to see our students!

2 Days to Go! ⏰ WAIT! What time does school actually start?!
We're officially close enough that it's time to start thinking about Wednesday morning logistics. Here's your quick first-day cheat sheet:
Early Learning Center
Morning Session: 8:00–11:00 a.m.
Afternoon Session: 12:00–3:00 p.m.
Elementary Schools
7:40 a.m.–2:40 p.m.
Savannah Middle School
7:50 a.m.–3:05 p.m.
Savannah High School
7:35 a.m.–2:48 p.m.
🚪 One important morning reminder: School doors open at 7:15 a.m. Students should not be dropped off before that time, as staff is not available to supervise students before the doors open.
The first few mornings may take a little longer than usual as everyone gets back into the routine, so give yourself some extra time and patience in those drop-off lines.
Bus rider? Remember, routes can also run up to 30 minutes behind during the first week as drivers and students settle into the new routine.
Set those alarms — 2 DAYS, SR3 Family! #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

3 Days to Go! 🥪 It's time for the Great Lunchbox Test!
If your student will be packing lunch for school, take a few minutes today for a practice run.
Can they open their lunchbox? Twist open the thermos? GoGurt tubes and Lunchables are notoriously difficult.
Our staff will always be there to lend a hand, especially with our youngest students, but lunchtime moves quickly. The more students can manage independently, the more time they have to actually eat their lunch.
Not packing? We've got you covered! Swipe to check out what's on the school menu for our first three days back.
You can always find current breakfast and lunch menus on the Savannah R3 website or in the SR3 app.

As we get ready to head back to school, here's an important reminder: Savannah R3 schools are cell phone-free from the first bell to the last bell.
That means cell phones and other personal electronic devices should remain put away throughout the school day, including passing periods and lunch.
This weekend is a great time to talk about the expectation at home and make a plan for staying connected. Need to reach your student during the school day? Call the school office. We'll make sure they get the message.
Fewer distractions. More opportunities to learn, connect, and be present.
