Smith County Needs Assessment Survey

In order to more thoroughly understand the needs of students, families, and school staff, the Smith County School District is conducting a needs assessment of all four school sites, including Raleigh Elementary, Raleigh High School, Mize Attendance Center, and Taylorsville Attendance Center.

The intended use of the Needs Assessment finding is to:

•  Identify priority areas of need for students, families, and staff in our schools.
•  Inform the planning of Smith County School District strategies (programmatic and/or policy) to address these identified priority areas
•  Inform Smith County School District communication materials and talking points for different audiences—including students, families, school staff, funders, and community members—to share the Smith County School District programmatic rationale.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Smith County Schools will not allow any Valentine’s deliveries on campus. 

Due to the high number of faculty members and students that have been exposed to COVID-19 at Taylorsville Attendance Center, the school will be closed till February 8^th. Students are required to follow their regular schedule virtually. All sessions will be held live, and assignments will be placed in Google Classroom. Students that have an issue of internet access will be able to get packets from the school. Drive through lunches will be made available for pick-up from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm. All other Smith County schools will remain open. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, but we wish to keep our students and staff as safe as possible.

Our purpose, our mission in the Smith County School District is to provide learning opportunities that will challenge and encourage our students to succeed and enable them to become productive and well-adjusted citizens in an ever-changing society.  Recognizing that all students have worth, dignity, and individual needs and talents, we continually strive to adapt to the Smith County School District’s education program to encompass a diverse student population.

The mission of our school district also includes instilling in each student those values and attitudes that would develop ethical character, love of country and worthy family membership.  We also believe that we have a responsibility to foster good personal and community health by providing clean, comfortable, safe and attractive school facilities.  We are charged with stressing the development of good personal health habits and providing nutritious and well-balanced food service.  Finally, we believe that our mission is to adequately prepare students for a successful future in the world of work or additional formal education upon their graduation from our schools.

To obtain these purposes, this district has established these goals:

I.  To help each child master the skills and obtain the competencies required to function in today’s and tomorrow’s society.

II. To promote good health and well-being of each student

III. To prepare each child for entry into college or the job market.
