Jamie works on the district maintenance team and is the building custodian for our Early Learning Center. He's a Jamie of all Trades, and we are so glad he's part of our team! #SR3FamilySnapshots #SR3Family #WeAreSR3

Ancient Egypt came to life in 6th grade! 🐫📜 To wrap up their unit, students selected three different projects from a wide menu of options—everything from vision boards and songs to research papers, artifacts, maps, and timelines. Each project explored a different topic connected to Ancient Egypt.

The results? A room full of learning about mummies, pharaohs, pyramids, Egyptian gods, the Nile River, and more—all brought to life through student creativity. Students then participated in a gallery walk, leaving encouraging sticky-note comments for their classmates and celebrating each other's work.

Hands-on learning + creativity + peer feedback = a pretty awesome way to wrap up a unit! #SR3Family #WeAreSR3

Savannah Middle School Theatre is diving under the sea this weekend with The SpongeBob Musical – Youth Edition, and Bikini Bottom has officially made its way to the SHS Performing Arts Center.

From the optimistic energy of SpongeBob to the colorful characters of Bikini Bottom, our middle school performers have been working hard to bring this fun, high-energy show to life. If you grew up watching SpongeBob, you’ll catch plenty of familiar moments—and if your kids are new to it, they’re about to discover why the pineapple under the sea has been making people laugh for more than two decades.

Grab your friends, your family, and maybe even your inner SpongeBob and join us for a show that’s full of music, laughter, and a whole lot of heart.

Middle schoolers voluntarily coming to the library after school… to read...with friends?!?!📚👏 We call that a win!

Mrs. Whittington gathered duplicate copies so students can check out the same title as a friend — and they are ALL IN. We’re seeing mini book clubs, afternoon reading hangouts, and conversations sparked by great stories. Turns out, when you mix good books with good friends, magic happens. 💛

Now we want to hear from you:
📖 What book would YOU have checked out with your best friend in middle school?
OR
📚 What book do you think every middle schooler should read with a friend?

Drop your picks in the comments — we might just add them to our list! 👇#SR3Family #WeAreSR3

Savannah High School was proudly represented at this weekend’s Cotillion for Achievement, where outstanding seniors from across the region were honored for their academic excellence, leadership, and character.

Of the 16 area students selected as honorees and 8 finalists, three were from SHS — an incredible testament to the strength of the #SR3Family.

Congratulations to Carlton Crumb, Cole Schweizer, and Jack Roth

Being chosen for this recognition places these young men among the very best in our region, but that was no surprise to us. We are proud of the way they represent our school, our staff, and our community.

Savage excellence continues to shine. 💛 #SR3Family #WeAreSR3

Our 8th graders are taking science beyond the textbook and into their hands — literally.

By modeling atoms, molecules, and extended structures, students are exploring how individual particles connect, how molecules form, and how repeating patterns create the structures that make up the world around us. With each bond they build, they’re testing ideas, adjusting their models, and figuring out how structure influences properties.

Big concepts feel a little less abstract when you can build them, hold them, and see how they fit together.

There’s a lot of thinking happening around those lab tables — and it’s exciting to watch.

Science is alive and well in 8th grade. 💛 #SR3Family #WeAreSR3

We’re hiring a District Receptionist — the first voice, the first smile, and often the first experience families have with SR3.

If you’re professional, organized, welcoming, and take pride in representing something bigger than yourself, this could be your next chapter.

We also have several openings across the district for those looking to be part of the SR3 Family.

Our 3D art students have been hard at work mastering the art of wheel throwing — shaping clay, centering forms, and turning simple lumps into beautiful bowls and vessels.

If you’ve ever watched wheel throwing up close, you know it takes patience, focus, and a whole lot of practice. These students are putting in the work — and it shows.

Our 6th graders recently hosted a gallery walk to showcase their hard work on ecological interactions — and they absolutely delivered.

Students designed detailed biome dioramas and paired them with 2–5 paragraph essays explaining:
• Ecological relationships between species
• Real-world limiting factors
• Biotic and abiotic components
• How changes in an ecosystem impact survival

From rainforests and swamps to arctic tundras and coastal environments, these projects brought science to life in creative, hands-on ways.

It’s one thing to memorize vocabulary.
It’s another to build it, explain it, and defend it.

We’re proud of the critical thinking, creativity, and effort on display in 6th grade science! 💛 #SR3Family #WeAreSR3
