Principal's Message

 
 
Welcome back for the 2025-2026 school year!  Our teachers and staff have been anxiously awaiting our students' return.  we believe that it is important for our students to be connected to school through positive relationships and a strong sense of community.  I believe that every student can learn and be successful if provided the right supports and opportunities.  Our teachers and staff are committed to providing all students with an appropriate and challenging educational experience in a respectful environment that fosters learning and growth.
 
We ask our students and parents for assistance in helping our teachers and staff by emphasizing the importance of doing your best at all times.  We know this is what all parents want for their children and it is certainly what we desire here at TMMS. Together we can make this happen. 
 
Working together to build our future!
 
Sincerely,
 
Renee R Askew, Ed.S.
Principal

K-8 Distraction-Free Education Act, Effective 2026-2027

Flyer outlines distraction-free learning law.
In 2025, in response to growing concerns about how personal device usage affects students’ academic success, attention, and social-emotional development, the Georgia General Assembly passed the “Distraction-Free Education Act” (O.C.G.A. § 20-2-324.8). Under this law, as of July 1, 2026, bell-to-bell access to personal electronic devices by students in grades K-8 is prohibited. The prohibition of access to these devices will extend to high school students in the 2027-2028 school year.
