Huge thanks to for capturing these beautiful moments with our students, families, and staff.❤️‍🔥

TRIO Summer Tip Series 😎✨

Today’s tip comes from Mrs. Montgomery, a Communities In Schools of Cleveland County Coach at Burns Middle School! 🍎💪🏽

Her advice? Get involved—your future will thank you for it.

Whether you’re just starting middle school or already setting your sights on college, the time to build your legacy is now. Volunteering, joining clubs, and helping in your community aren’t just good deeds—they’re stepping stones to success.

Getting involved shows leadership, builds confidence, and opens doors. Colleges and scholarships don’t just look at grades—they look at who you are and how you give back.

So don’t sit on the sidelines.
🌟 Volunteer.
🌟 Join something meaningful.
🌟 Use your voice and your time to make a difference.

Your future is shaped by what you do today. So start now—and make it count!

Be kind. Be active. Be the difference. 🫶🏽📚

TRIO Summer Tip Series 😎🥳

Today’s tip comes from Officer Hart, SRO at Shelby Middle School Shelby Police Department! 👮🏽‍♂️

His advice? Stay safe, your future depends on it.

Whether you’re heading into high school or already thinking about college, the choices you make now matter. Getting involved in dangerous situations, like gang activity, gun violence, or even being in the wrong crowd, can cost you everything: your freedom, your future, and even your life.

Safety isn’t just about rules…it’s about wisdom.

Pay attention to your surroundings. Trust your instincts. Walk away when something doesn’t feel right. Being aware and making smart decisions now prepares you for independence later, like when you’re on a college campus or out in the real world.

Your dreams are worth protecting.
That scholarship, that college acceptance, that career goal? It’s all within reach. Don’t risk it for a moment of pressure or a trend that leads nowhere.

Be safe. Be smart. Stay focused. 🎓🔥

TRIO Summer Tip Series 😎🥳

Today’s tip comes from Deputy Whiteside, SRO at Burns Middle School! 👮🏾‍♂️

He reminds us: What you do this summer matters. 💡 Whether you’re heading into high school or already dreaming of college, start making choices now that protect your future. Va**ng and peer pressure might show up—but so can self-discipline and vision. You get to decide how successful you want to be.

Success starts with self-control.
Be safe, be smart, and keep your goals in sight. That scholarship, that dream school, that future? It’s all within reach—just don’t trade it for a trend. 🎓🔥
