🕷️📚 Student Shoutout! 📚🕷️

A huge shoutout to A’King, one of our 2nd graders, who was SO proud of himself for finishing a 160-page Spider-Man book! 🕷️💥

His perseverance and determination to stick with it and finish the book is something to celebrate! 💪📖 We love seeing our students discover that reading is fun and that they can accomplish big things, one page at a time!

🌱 GEORGIA AG IN THE SPOTLIGHT! 🚜🍑

Do you know what Georgia’s top commodities are? If not, ask any student in Ms. Kearney’s Basic Ag Science class—they can tell you! 💡🌾

After exploring the powerhouse agricultural products that fuel our state—like peanuts, poultry, cotton, and timber—students got creative! 🎨📐 They built 12-sided 3D dodecagons and featured different Georgia commodities on each panel.

Combining hands-on learning, geometry, and agricultural education with one shared purpose! 🐅🖤💛

Once a Tiger, always a Tiger!

💍✨ A BIG DAY FOR THE CLASS OF 2028! 🐅🖤💛

On Wednesday, August 27th, our Class of 2028 marked a major high school milestone as they officially received their class rings!

Representatives from The Roderick Group (an affiliate of Herff Jones) stopped by to deliver these timeless symbols of achievement—along with some delicious Chick-fil-A! 🐔🥤 They spent time sharing the rich history of class rings and guiding students on the tradition of how to wear them properly.

CHS Principal Mr. Rowe officially presented our Tigers with their rings, and then it was time to put them on display! 💎📸

Wearing their school pride on their hands, our juniors are moving forward together with one purpose—building memories that will last a lifetime under One Roar! ⚡

Once a Tiger, always a Tiger! 🐅🐾

📏📊 Mrs. Reagan’s 3rd Grade Class became measurement detectives today! 🕵️‍♀️🔎

Our students used rulers to measure their shoes to the nearest inch, then turned their measurements into dot plots and bar graphs! 👟📏📊 They used real-world data to look for patterns, answer questions, and make math meaningful.

We had so much fun discovering that math is everywhere—even on our feet! 💕👣

Way to measure, graph, and learn, Mrs. Reagan’s class! 💙💛
