"I Met a Hero Today" 
All of our nutrition staff work tirelessly to make sure every child enrolled in Thomas County Schools receives a quality breakfast and lunch each day. It was only fitting that Ms. Leeo Thomas was recently featured by the GaDOE School Nutrition department for her commitment to feeding kids and encouraging them in their education. Thank you, Ms. Leeo and to read more about her, click here for the GaDOE School Nutrition page.
Weekly Meals for Remote/Virtual Learners
If your child(ren) is/are enrolled as a REMOTE or VIRTUAL learner for Thomas County Schools weekly meals (five breakfast and five lunch) will be distributed on Wednesdays from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. or while supplies last at the front entrance of Thomas County Middle School.

Meals in the Classroom
While eating meals in the classroom is not ideal, we appreciate the effort of our teachers and staff to care for one another and keep each other safe. We hope that meals in the classroom will be a positive experience for our students and that it remains an integral social component to our students' day. Please check out the following resources to make the most of mealtime in the classroom.
