Currently 9 of 11 of our schools receive CEP funding allowing students to eat lunch at no cost. Last night, School Nutrition Director David Lightner presented to the Macon County Board of Commissioners. During his presentation, Mr. Lightner requested $200,000 in funding to support providing all students at Franklin High School and Highlands School lunch at no cost for the 2024-2025 school year. This would ensure that every student at FHS and Highlands receives a nutritious lunch at no cost, addressing our students basic needs and promoting their success both academically and personally. Following Mr. Lightner’s presentation, the Macon County Board of County Commissioners approved 3-2 to fulfill the request. We are beyond thankful for the support of our county commissioners as we move into the 2024-2025 school year! Thank you Mr. Lightner for the detailed information that was given during your presentation and for advocating for our students!

This afternoon at Macon Early college was really special. A few months ago, Chief Academic Officer Mickey Noe, Macon Early College Principal Caleb Parham and ESL Teacher Kim Pinkston were brainstorming ways to add additional support to our ESL students in Elementary School. After much deliberation , we created a peer tutoring program where Spanish speaking students from Franklin High and MEC would go into the Elementary schools and tutor our students in English. This program quickly grew and became much more than a tutoring program. Our high school students were able to develop position relationships with the Elementary students. Now the program is like a big brother/big sister program with a high level of tutoring. Today we celebrated the success of our program with a wonderful lunch from Chick-filet and all the students had the opportunity to discuss their experiences. South Macon Elementary Principal Mrs. Allison Guynn was also present to thank the kids for their hard work and dedication. Mrs. Guynn told the students they were a "true blessing" and she was so excited to continue the program.
