🚸 School Starts Tomorrow! 🚸

Tomorrow marks the beginning of a brand-new school year, and we couldn't be more excited for students, teachers, school staff, and families!

As our roads become busier with school buses, young drivers, pedestrians, and children walking to and from school, we ask everyone to slow down and stay alert. Please obey school zone speed limits, stop for school buses when required, avoid distractions, and leave a few minutes early so you don't have to rush.

A little extra patience and caution can make all the difference in keeping our community safe.

From all of us at Smith Station Fire Protection District, we wish every student, teacher, administrator, and school employee a safe, successful, and amazing school year. Let's work together to make sure everyone gets to school and back home safely each day.

❤️ Have a fantastic first day, Panthers! Stay safe and have a wonderful school year!

What can you plant in the garden in August? More than you might think!
As summer crops begin to wind down, it is time to start preparing for fall gardening. Beans, broccoli, cabbage, collards, kale, lettuce, radishes, turnips, and other vegetables can still be planted, depending on your location in Alabama. Your lawn and landscape also need attention this month, especially when it comes to watering and monitoring for insects and diseases.
