Candler County Schools will be closed on Monday, January 15 to commemorate the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We encourage you to attend the annual Metter MLK Day Parade at 2 pm in the downtown area.

The Candler County School District plans to operate on a normal schedule for Tuesday, January 9. With the timing of the storm, we feel students may be safer inside the school buildings and the storm should be passed by the time school ends as they predict it is moving very quickly. However, we will continue to monitor the weather and will keep you updated through social media, our websites, and through our mass communication text/call/email system. We hope that everyone will be safe as this storm passes through our area.

Have you visited our website lately? We've uploaded a new video on our homepage that you want to see! https://www.metter.org/o/mes

It's National Parents as Teachers Day! Research shows that greater parent involvement is a critical link in a child’s development of learning skills, including reading and writing. Take some time to teach your child(ren) something new today. Have a conversation with them about how school went today (don't let them just tell you "fine")...ask them specific questions about their classes...they will be excited to tell you all about it! We call this SWIRL (Speaking, Writing, Illustrating, Reading and Listening) and families can be engaged in SWIRL just as much as the children are at school, just by talking, listening and even playing games with your child(ren). Give it a try today.
