  • Spring Break is over; School Tomorrow!

    Good evening! Hope you all had a wonderful Spring Break with your children.  As it always does, it ends too quickly.  With that, just a reminder TOMORROW all students return to school.  Every day counts as we move closer to spring testing.  Please make sure your children come to school each day prepared for learning.  Being on time and present each day puts them in the best position to be successful in the classroom! One change at Tolar School is the departure of Principal Rob Wheetley.  Mr. Rob has taken another job outside the District and we wish him the best and are thankful for his years of service to Tolar School.  In the interim, Assistant Superintendent Jeff Sewell will be serving as Principal at Tolar School until a replacement is found. We have advertised the position and already have some wonderful candidates.  Mr. Sewell can be reached at Tolar School at 850-643-2426.   See y’all tomorrow! Go Panthers and Go Dawgs! Sincerely, Kyle Peddie Liberty County Superintendent of Schools
