🎓 Let's hear it for our Tigers!🦅 This past Saturday, a group of bright students from Claxton Middle School and Claxton High School soared high during the Migrant Education Program, College Experience Day at Georgia Southern University! 🏫✨ They dove into informative workshops, gained insights from inspiring guest speakers, and explored the sprawling campus. 🗣️🌳 A big shout-out to our students - Fredi, Rose, Lovedana, Dasha, Rayvelis, and Ramon - for representing our schools with Tiger pride and curiosity! 🌟 #WeLoveOurTigers #SchoolAndCommunityConnections

🍽️ Mrs. Liberatore’s class has been busy creating their very own restaurant!

Have we mentioned how wonderful it is to be a part of the Claxton-Evans County community? For a small town, there are opportunities abundant for our students, and we appreciate every single one. Senior Kellyn Ramirez has made the most of her opportunity at Deloach, Odell & Associates! She has grown over the past year in her role within this office. After graduation, Kellyn plans to attend GSU and major in Accounting. She also plans to remain in her job with this office as she begins her college journey. We’re glad your Work-Based Learning experience can go with you into this new stage of life. We are proud of you, Kellyn! #TheDEN #BlackAndGoldBuildingSuccess #LifeSkills

This lovely CHS senior recently showed us her workspace at Kyle Durrence Chevrolet, Buick & GMC. Over this past year, Laney Massey has grown in her role at the dealership, and she has developed a professional bond with her team there. She says she realizes what an important role a “work family” can play in a person’s life, and she plans to remain in her position as she enters the next phase of her life. Laney will be among the first students to enroll in one of OTC’s newest programs- the Associate of Science in Nursing. We are confident that her studies in her health science pathway at CHS, combined with her experience in her Work-Based Learning placement at Kyle Durrence Chevrolet have prepared her to meet her future goals! We're so proud of you, Laney! #BlackAndGoldBuildingSuccess #TheDEN #TigerPride

It’s hard to believe it’s been several months since we featured one of our students working at Georgia Fruitcake Company. Two more Work-Based Learning students have since joined the team there, and they have been serving up all kinds of delicious treats to the good people of the Claxton-Evans County area. Recently. Work-Based Learning Coordinator Mrs. Johns enjoyed an afternoon muffin and was greeted and helped by senior Cristian Muñoz! It’s always a treat to engage with our CHS students out in the professional community. Post graduation, Cristian plans to attend GSU and major in Accounting. He has gained invaluable experience in the operation of a small business, and he looks forward to a career in numbers. Perhaps he will be handling your books one day! CHS is proud of you, Cristian! #TheDEN #BlackAndGoldBuildingSuccess
