It is National Librarian Day, and we have the best one ever at CCHS. We are very thankful to have Ms. Meagan Lee in our media center. She does so much for our staff and students. Without her our library would just be a room with books, computers, and media material. Thank you Ms. Lee for being at CCHS.
The goal of the Secretary of State’s Ambassadors Program is to provide high school students an opportunity to engage as a leader within their school and community. Students gain leadership experience by learning about and teaching Georgia civics to your peers, learning about voter registration and promoting and encouraging other students to register to vote. Throughout the school year, teams will organize and carry out various activities for points that go towards the regional and statewide competition. Regional winners and an overall state are announced at the end of the competition. The ambassadors at CCHS won Region 1 and finished 8th overall in the state competition. We have a great group of ambassadors and we are very proud of them! (not pictured - Delaney Murrell)
The school climate at CCHS is UNMATCHED!!! Thank you to all of the students and staff that donated today to wear a hat for Preston Prescott.

In addition, if you donate, you will be entered in the drawing for a hat giveaway. Mr. Pender has a Braves cap, Coach Crews has J-Rock hats, and Coach Marchman and Coach Murray have Indians hats to give away, so there will be several winners!

We would like to give a HUGE shoutout to Ms. Sandy McDonald and Mr. Anthony Jackson for their generous Prom Angel donations to four students at CCHS. They work hard to fundraise throughout the year in order to provide prom essentials for four lucky students. In doing so, they honor the memory of their late daughter Coco. This is the second year of the Prom Angel program. Through this program, two boys and two girls are selected to receive a prom gift bag including gift cards for attire, grooming, and dinner. This award helps to ease some of the financial burden that senior year presents. Congrats to this year’s recipients: Cassidy Engler, Alex Erwin, Taquan Pierrain, and Chelsea Thompson.
