A Note from Principal Webb

Good afternoon!

  •  The Science Machine was here today doing fun science experiments for our students. This is led by the wacky guy with the green hair. Students were excited to learn in a totally different way as the Science Machine presented to three large groups of students. Ask your child what part of the presentation they liked the most. Thank you, PTO!

Business Partner Spotlight - Kelsey Cline State Farm

Did you know that customers who switch their autos to State Farm save an average of $587 a year? 

 

Comparing savings is easy. But the true value of a policy only becomes clear when you understand what’s covered…and what’s not. Let us guide you through that process, comparing your current policy with ours. Then I can help you create a Personal Price Plan™ to personalize your coverage at a price that’s right for you and your family. 

 

Our team will be happy to give you a clearer understanding of your current policies, exactly what they cover, and what other choices are open to you. Compare our service: 

  • Personal, one-on-one local support from our team (Forget that call center!) 
  • 24/7 service through the State Farm mobile app 
  • Face-to-face help in office or online with good Neighbor Connect™

 

I’m a proud parent of a kindergartener here at Birmingham Falls, and I live and thrive right here in your community of Milton. I know what you’re protecting and can provide the level of personalized service that you’ve come to expect from your local businesses. Give me a call or drop by today to see how we can earn your business! 

 

Your good neighbor State Farm Agent, 

 

Thank you to all of our Business Partners!
