This week, Clay County District Schools is proud to celebrate National School Counseling Week. Our counselors are more than just academic advisors—they are listeners, advocates, and bridge-builders.
Whether it’s navigating a tough day, planning for a bright future, or simply providing a safe space to be heard, our counselors work daily to "amplify" the potential in every child they meet.
To our CCDS Counseling Team: Thank you for your tireless heart, your patience, and your dedication to the well-being of our students. We are so grateful for the impact you make across our district!
Help us show our counselors some love! "Heart" this post to send a huge thank you to the counseling team at your school! 🔗💙

🎺 A Night of Musical Excellence: All-County Honor Band 2026
What a breathtaking performance! This past Thursday night, the Thrasher-Horne Center was filled with the incredible sounds of our very own Clay County students during the All-County Honor Band Concert.
From the intricate woodwind melodies to the powerful resonance of the brass and percussion, our Junior and Senior High musicians demonstrated exactly why the performing arts are the heartbeat of our schools. These students didn't just play notes; they poured their hearts into every measure, showcasing the discipline, teamwork, and passion they’ve cultivated all year.
🌟 Celebrating Our Student Artists
The performing arts provide more than just music—they build confidence, foster community, and offer a creative outlet that lasts a lifetime. Seeing these talented individuals from across the district come together under the baton of world-class conductors was a reminder of the amazing things that happen when we support the arts.
A huge thank you to:
The Students: For your countless hours of practice and dedication.
The Band Directors: For your tireless mentorship and leadership.
The Parents & Families: For your unwavering support of your child’s musical journey.
We are so incredibly proud of our musicians. You represented Clay County District Schools with grace, professionalism, and pure talent!
