Tattnall County Schools: Board Office, Calendar & Parent Help
The Tattnall County Board of Education office in Reidsville handles district-level school business, but families usually need one of several different routes: Board meetings, Simbli agendas, the school calendar, registration, PowerSchool, transportation, records or an individual school office.
This independent guide brings those routes together using current Tattnall County School District information, with local details for families in Reidsville, Glennville, Collins and the surrounding county.
Tattnall County Board of Education essentials
The Tattnall County Board of Education is part of the public school district headquartered at 146 W. Brazell Street in Reidsville. Board members set district policy, approve educational goals and curriculum changes, act on the Superintendent’s recommendations, approve the annual budget and oversee long-range facility planning.
The district’s current Board page now directs visitors to Simbli for official Board agendas, minutes, policies, Board member contact information and related governance documents.
146 W. Brazell Street, Reidsville, GA 30453.
Call 912-557-4726 for the district office.
Current agendas, minutes, policies and Board information are routed through Simbli.
Kristen Waters, Ed.D., is the current Superintendent.
Entity check: this article covers the Tattnall County school Board in Georgia. County commissioners, elections, courts and other Tattnall County government offices are separate authorities.
Tattnall County Board of Education office address and phone
The district’s central Board office is in downtown Reidsville on West Brazell Street. If your task involves Board business, district administration or an Open Records request, this is the main district location.
Call before making a special trip: Board meetings, registration questions and public-record requests have different procedures. The district office can help confirm which department or school should handle your issue.
Tattnall County Schools calendar dates families should know
The district navigation currently links an official 2026–2027 District Calendar. Calendar dates are separate from Board meeting dates, so families should use the academic calendar for school attendance, breaks and teacher work days.

Calendar source note: the district directly links the 2026–27 calendar through its official navigation. Dates above were cross-checked against a current extracted copy of that district calendar. Before booking travel, childcare or an appointment around a school closing, open the live district calendar in case the Board has amended it.
When does the Tattnall County Board of Education meet?
Current district Board guidance states that the Board meets on the fourth Monday of each month at 1:00 p.m. for routine business. The listed meeting location is the Tattnall County Board of Education Office at 146 West Brazell Street in Reidsville.
The Board also holds called meetings, budget hearings and other public meetings when needed. Those dates do not have to follow the normal monthly pattern.
Regular meeting pattern
Fourth Monday of the month at 1:00 p.m., according to current district Board meeting guidance.
Regular location
Tattnall County Board of Education Office, 146 West Brazell Street, Reidsville, Georgia.
Do not calculate a meeting date and stop there. Called meetings, holidays and Board changes can affect the schedule. Open the current Simbli meeting notice before driving to Reidsville.
The district now uses Simbli for agendas, minutes, policies, Board member contact information and other official Board documents.
How to find a Tattnall County BOE agenda or meeting record
The Board page says official agendas, minutes and policies have moved to Simbli. Tattnall’s older district archive still contains historical minutes, so the correct route depends on whether you need a current meeting or an older record.
Start at the official Board page
Use the district Board page rather than a search-engine PDF result. This is where the district directs visitors to Simbli.
Open the current Simbli system
Match the meeting date and check the current agenda and attached documents.
Use minutes for completed Board action
An agenda shows scheduled business. Approved minutes are the stronger record of what happened at the meeting.
Check the legacy archive for older meetings
The district’s Agendas and Minutes page still exposes historical Board minutes, including 2024 and 2025 entries.
How to get a matter before the Board
District Board guidance says regular meetings are open to the public except for lawful executive-session matters. It also states that a person seeking a place on the agenda should submit a written request to the Superintendent at least five days before the scheduled Board meeting.
Agenda request
Current district guidance says to submit the written request to the Superintendent at least five days before the meeting.
Budget and millage hearings
The district separately advertises public hearings for budget, millage rate and other issues when those meetings are required.
Protect student information: do not put grades, disability information, medical records, discipline details, Social Security numbers or other protected student information into a public Board presentation.
What you need to register a student in Tattnall County Schools
New students use PowerSchool Enrollment Express for pre-registration, but the district tells families to contact the registrar at the school where the child is enrolling to complete the registration process.
Tattnall County’s registration instructions are unusually detailed about residency and legal documents, so bringing the right paperwork can prevent an extra trip.
Start New Student Pre-Registration
Use PowerSchool Enrollment Express, then contact the receiving school’s registrar to complete enrollment.
Bring one Type 1 residency document
Examples listed by the district include house closing papers, deed, mortgage documents, rental agreement or lease, most recent income-tax return, current residential property-tax statement or bill, or current paycheck stub.
Add one current utility document
The district asks for a current utility bill showing the physical residential address. It specifically says cell-phone bills are not accepted as valid residency proof.
Bring student and parent records
Prepare the student’s recent report card/transcript, certified birth certificate or acceptable age evidence, Social Security card or refusal form, Georgia immunization and EED forms, and the registering parent or guardian’s picture ID.
Bring custody or court documents when applicable
Permanent custody papers, court orders limiting parental access and relevant restraining orders should be presented when they apply to the student.
Living with another household
The district requires a notarized homeowner statement plus valid residency proof. Both the parent/legal guardian and homeowner must come to the school so the statement can be notarized.
Health information
Families are asked to bring documentation for health concerns or allergies the school should know about, plus physician and emergency-contact details.
Transfer students: enrollment can be pending while disciplinary records arrive from the prior system. Class placement may initially rely on the information available and can change after complete academic records are received.
Can a student attend another Tattnall County school?
Georgia’s HB 251 intradistrict-transfer process can allow a student to attend another public school within the same district when the receiving school has classroom space after assigned students are enrolled.
The district explains that parents are responsible for the student’s transportation when they use this transfer option. Annual notice, timeline and application documents are published by the district.
Availability matters: HB 251 is not an automatic school-choice guarantee. The receiving school must have available classroom space, and families must follow the district’s annual process.
Tattnall County schools: addresses and phone numbers
The district currently lists five schools. Reidsville, Glennville and Collins families should use the individual school office for day-to-day student questions instead of calling the Board office first.
Who should you call? Attendance, teacher contact, class schedules, student pickup and school events usually belong with the school. Board policies, governance, districtwide issues and public records belong at district level.
Tattnall County school bus information parents should know
The Transportation Department describes the school bus as an extension of the classroom and operates under both Georgia Department of Education requirements and local Board policies.
Use the district Transportation page for current procedures and contact information.
PowerSchool, attendance and family resources
Tattnall County’s Parent Information Center is more useful than the Board page for routine family tasks. It currently links the 2026–27 student handbook, attendance protocol, five-day and ten-day unexcused-absence notices, PowerSchool instructions, school-safety information and other parent resources.
PowerSchool
Parent Portal and account-creation resources are linked through the district’s Parent Information Center.
Attendance
The parent page currently carries the 2026–27 attendance protocol and related unexcused-absence materials.
Language support
The district says non-English registration packets are available at schools and publishes ESOL and migrant-family resources.
How to request Tattnall County School System public records
The district says its records are subject to the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70 through § 50-18-77, except records specifically exempt from disclosure.
The district states that it will provide applicable information relating to a request within three business days after receipt. If production is not possible within that period, the Open Records Officer issues correspondence explaining the situation.
Open records are not the same as student records. Transcripts, grades, discipline information, health records and other protected education records should be handled through the appropriate school or student-record process.
Tattnall County school jobs and Human Resources
The district separates Human Resources from the Board governance pages. Current vacancies are linked through the district’s Career Opportunities route, while substitute applicants are sent to a separate Kelly Education application.
Personnel Services
Use HR for employment support, employee resources and personnel questions. The district states that E-Verify is used for employment eligibility verification.
Current openings
Use the live Career Opportunities link in the district navigation rather than an old search result because vacancies can close or change.
Tattnall County school budget and finance information
The Finance department publishes budget, property-tax and millage information. Current district resources include FY27 preliminary budget material, 2026 tax-digest information and public-meeting notices related to budget and property-tax decisions.
Budget information
The finance page currently lists FY27 preliminary budget material alongside prior-year budget documents.
Tax information
The district publishes the current 2026 Tax Digest and five-year levy history in its Finance section.
