A Smooth Start

The harvest has ended, the summer is far spent and we're back in school again! Our school year has gotten off to a really good start and everyone appears to be ready to go. The freshman class that came over from the middle school is very large, we have approximately 230 students in the freshman class. This summer we had our 1st open house and it went very well. The parental support was outstanding and the freshmen, although nervous, seemed to have a better feel for what to do on the 1st day. Mrs. Cox and Ms. Wilson spearheaded the open house and are to be commended.
This summer CCHS received approximately $5000.00 from representative Martin and $2500.00 from the Lemak Award to upgrade the girls locker room. We commend coach Brian Carter for pursuing the award by filling out the proper paperwork to receive one of only 10 awards that were given out across the state. Our girls volleyball team and our boys football team will "kick off" soon and we are hoping for very successful seasons. I want to thank Mr. Joe Dennis and coach Josey Shannon for keeping the fields up, they look great. We want to encourage everyone to come out and support our student/athletes and the band, they've really worked hard over the summer.
We humbly ask, as we move through another school year, that everyone will keep us in your prayers. We work hard to provide a safe environment for our students and we hope and trust that all will be well for this 2010/2011 school year!!! Thank you.
