Toombs County High School is the first in Georgia to offer a Heavy Equipment class. It is a phenomenal innovative program for young men and women who are looking for an alternative “career pathway” within their school. Several students from the Intermediate Heavy Equipment class went on a field trip to view a construction site currently in Partin Park located in Lyons, GA. Local native, Toombs County BOE Chair and Lyons Main Street Board Chair, Clint Williams, took the time to speak directly to the students about the equipment needed and used for land surveys and measuring.
Toombs County Middle School recently entered into a lockdown as a precaution when a visitor to campus entered an unauthorized area. The individual was apprehended and placed into custody by our School Resource Officer. At no time were the students or staff members in harm's way. Toombs County Middle School has returned to normal operations.
We are excited to have you in our school!

Lyons Lions Club Members Continue to Provide Vision Screening Services
Vision screenings improve access to the general education curriculum and increase student success. In addition, the Georgia Department of Education has stated that the prevalence of vision loss in school-age children is one in four children. Due to this great need, the Lyons Lions Club performed vision screenings for 1st and 3rd graders at Toombs Central Elementary School on January 19. Families will be notified if the screening indicated that a follow up appointment is needed.
The Toombs County School District is grateful for the Lyons Lions Club partnership and their willingness to provide this needed service to the students and families.
