Thank you, Mrs. Lloyd, for making sure we celebrated Waffle Day by treating our staff to waffles! 🧇💙
Now, Mrs. Duncan and Mrs. Seale said they shared a waffle… but I’m not sure that waffle ever saw both of them! 😂😂
The toppings looked so yummy!







Quick backstory… 👀
Our Guidance Clerk, Jane V. Smith, was getting things ready for BIG’s Ronald McDonald House fundraiser, where we’re collecting tabs to help support this amazing cause.
As Jane was preparing, a student walked by and said, “I want to participate!”
That student was Rebecca Lambert—and BOY, DID SHE PARTICIPATE! 🙌🏽👏🏽
Rebecca has brought in the MOTHER LOAD of tabs! 🥫🔥 Talk about seeing a need and taking it to the next level!
And don’t be surprised… because THIS IS JUST HOW WE DO THINGS AT THE BLUE! 💙🐾
Keep those tabs rolling in! Every tab collected helps support the Ronald McDonald House and the families they serve.
WAY TO GO, REBECCA! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
BIG BLUE IS PROUD OF YOU! 💙🐾

Mrs. J. Cox has done it again! 🙌🏾 As always, that’s just how we do it at The Blue! 💙
And Mr. Barron took his Social Studies class UP A NOTCH with an exciting AMAZING RACE — Race Across the Americas! 🏃🏾♀️🌎🏃🏾♂️
Students traveled across North, Central, and South America as they explored countries, landforms, landmarks, and so much more—all while putting their knowledge, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to the test!
Who says learning can't be FUN?! 👏🏾
At BIG BLUE, we don’t just teach it—we EXPERIENCE it! 💙🐾
Today, Georgetown Middle School student-athletes had the opportunity to participate in the South Carolina High School League (SCHSL) Student Leadership Course!
This free leadership course is designed for student-athletes in grades 9–12 who are serving as fall team captains or are interested in becoming future leaders. And our Middle School made the list.
We are proud to celebrate our GMS student-athletes who were selected by Coach Barron to take part in this leadership opportunity. Their selection is a reflection of their character, commitment, teamwork, and potential to lead both on and off the field.
Congratulations, Bulldogs! 🐾💙

Hello Bulldog Family!
Please remember that Summer Reading is due FRIDAY 8/14/2026 by 3:30 pm. Your student's ELA teacher has an assignment on Google Classroom to upload digital submissions. If your student completes their assignment on paper, they can turn it in DURING CLASS TIME until 3:30 pm on Friday. This is a quiz grade, and late submissions will not be accepted.
Thank you!
Mrs. Elizabeth Harrington

🎶 If you hear beautiful sounds echoing through the halls, don't be alarmed...
Mrs. Filchak has the vocal warm-ups on LOCK! 🎤👏
Our students are already gearing up for an amazing year, and if today was any indication, the music program is about to be something special. 💙🎵
Stay tuned... the performances this year are going to be worth the wait!
Listen... I stepped outside for all of five minutes and one of my students hit me with...
"Mrs. Sumpter... FIT CHECK!" 😂💙
So of course, y'all know how we do it at the Blue! Confidence, school spirit, and a little style never hurt anybody.
📸 Shoutout to Zoey Anderson for making sure the fit was school-approved! 😎

But before the rain rolled in, our 6th grade first recess group got to break in our brand-new shade area, and they definitely understood the assignment! 😎
We're looking forward to many more recess memories... hopefully with a little more sunshine! ☀️



Parents, please remember:
💊 No medications should be sent to school with students.
If your child needs prescription medication during the school day, it must be accompanied by a doctor's order, and a parent or guardian must come to the school to sign the medication in.
Thank you for your cooperation as we work together to keep our students safe and healthy!
