Please help ECCSS celebrate our awesome CMS Band. They performed their Christmas Concert Tuesday evening. In addition to sharing awesome selections, different members of our CMS Band introduced themselves, the selections, and shared a little bit about what they have learned before each song was performed. We loved seeing our musicians shine!

Ms. Ikner's 6th grade ELA students participated in a student-led discussion based on the Harkness method. Each student posed a question and an answer in the discussion as it related to the three texts that were read. Students discussed the topics that presented in each of the articles and attempted to find the connection in them. #activelearning #studentleddiscussion

The CMS/CHS Bands and Chorus performed their Christmas Concert for a full house on Tuesday, December 13. All three groups did an excellent job. We'll be posting more pictures from the event directly to the ECCSS Facebook page. #MerryChristmas #RealLifeApplication

CES 12 Days of Christmas
Present Day


CHS students enjoyed the Winter Wonderland Dance that was held in the CMS/CHS cafeteria on Saturday, December 10. It was a semi-formal event and there was lots of dancing and memories made. Thank you to all who helped make it a success.
On 12/8, Mr. Gay's High School High Tech students took a tour of the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) campus. Our students were able to tour many of the classrooms because the SCAD was already on Winter Break. The most exciting part of the tour was the interactive SCAD Story that showcased many of the talents of past students. The students were surprised to see that college doesn't always just consist of book work. Students saw that many careers require more hands-on training as opposed to the traditional learning experiences.




The CMS Baseball is selling raffle tickets from now through January 12 for a Blackstone Grill.
Tickets may be purchased from Coach McLean, Mrs. Amber Sapp, the CMS/CHS office, concession stands during home basketball games, middle school baseball players, Tiger Management members, and your local Ace Hardware Store in Claxton.

Thanks for your support!
Each middle school teacher will select one student who exemplifies high personal character. These students will be invited to attend the middle school game free of charge and will be recognized during half time of the boys game.
