Happy Black History Month❤️💚🖤💛
Governor Ivey: “I have proclaimed February as Black History Month in Alabama. This month recognizes the many Black Alabamians whose hard work have helped shape our state across every sector. Alabama’s story is strengthened by those who lead, serve and build a stronger future for our state.” #bhm #BlackHistoryMonth Jefferson County Schools

January is Gifted Education Month, and we couldn’t let it pass without recognizing the incredible Mrs. Vaughn.
Thank you, Mrs. Vaughn, for creating a space where "thinking outside the box" isn't just encouraged—it’s the standard. We are so lucky to have you!

🍎 Collaborative Excellence at Brighton School!
We are thrilled to share the incredible progress happening behind the scenes at Brighton School!
This week, our leadership team sat down for a powerhouse planning session to strengthen our MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports). Our goal is simple: ensuring every student receives the exact level of support they need to thrive.
We were honored to collaborate with two dedicated experts from the Alabama Reading Initiative (ARI):
⭐️ Jen Joines – Regional Literacy Leadership Specialist (RLLS)
⭐️Stacy Curl – Regional Literacy Specialist (RLS)
By aligning our school structures with ARI’s proven literacy strategies, we are building a foundation for sustainable student success and instructional excellence. When we work together, our students win!❤️🐻⭐️

This week in Counseling, we practiced "Pretzel-verance!" Our character word is perseverance. Our students learned that even when things get knotted up or feel "hard", we have the strength to keep going.
We talked about how mistakes are just part of the recipe for success and that we don't give up just because the task is a bit salty. Watching them tackle challenges with a smile was the best treat of the week!
