Principal's Message

Brock Hawkins will step into the principal role for the next school year.
 
I have 13 years of experience in the district which includes teaching and coaching at TMMS prior to moving into administration. My background includes special education, physical education, and school leadership. I am very thankful to be chosen to be the next principal at Thomson-McDuffie Middle School. I’m honored to have the privilege to lead the next generation at the school. It’s also an honor to be the principal of a school I once attended. I’m thankful for everyone that helped get me to this place and prepared me for this.
 
I look forward to working with everyone, and pushing our kids in this county to continue to achieve and be prepared for high school.
 
2026-2027 will be a GREAT School Year!

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.
