🎉Happy School Custodian Appreciation Day!✨
Today, we recognize and thank the dedicated custodians across the Simpson County School District who work each day to keep our schools clean, safe, and welcoming for our students and staff.
Much of their work happens behind the scenes, but the difference they make can be seen throughout our schools every day. We appreciate their hard work, dedication, and all they do for SCSD! ❤️💛

Simpson County School District is providing an update regarding the football game between the Magee High School Trojans and the Mendenhall High School Tigers.
The game will take place as planned on Friday, September 4, at Mendenhall High School, with kickoff moved up to 6:00 p.m.
Ensuring the safety of our students, staff, and community members at district events is our top priority. An increased law enforcement presence will be in place throughout the game, including personnel from Homeland Security, the Mississippi Highway Patrol, the Simpson County Sheriff’s Office, and other local law enforcement agencies. Additional lighting will also be provided in parking areas.
The SCSD Clear Bag Policy will be strictly enforced, and tailgating will not be permitted on school grounds. Spectators are encouraged to plan accordingly and allow additional time for entry into the stadium.
The game will also be available to watch live on Hudl for $10. The livestream can be accessed at the link below:

We appreciate the cooperation and support of our community as we work together to provide a safe environment for everyone attending Friday’s game.

Did you know? Missing just two days of school each month can result in a student being chronically absent.
Throughout the month, we'll be sharing important information about chronic absenteeism, why attendance matters, and recent changes to Mississippi's school attendance law.
Every school day counts! ❤️💛
