What would happen if a meteor knocked the moon closer to the earth? Life As We Knew It, the November and December book club selection, centers around this very thing, and explores the resulting ripples that change life for the entire planet. Any high school student interested in reading this book should swing by Holly Durrence's office for a copy. The DEN Book Club will discuss the first section (Spring) on Thursday, November 20, during Tiger Time. #readingforpleasure #readingwithfriends
CHS Honors Our Heroes! A Day of Deep Gratitude 🌟
Claxton High School and the history department hosted a deeply meaningful Veterans Day program Tuesday, November 1, 2025, to honor those who have served. 🏫 The day began bright and early with a special breakfast 🥓☕ for the veterans, a small token of our immense appreciation.
Our guest speaker, 2nd Lt. Jordan Hendrix (Platoon Leader, 414 Signal Company, 3rd Infantry Division, Ft. Stewart), delivered a powerful message on selfless service 🛡️, emphasizing that true dedication happens not just on the battlefield but also in the quiet moments of daily life. He encouraged our students to live with purpose and "do what is right, even when no one is watching." 💪
The program featured heartfelt tributes from our talented students (Mila Sapp, Emmie Stanfield, Victor Fuentes, Kaydence Snellgrove, Jordan Brown) and inspiring performances by the CHS Band 🎶🎺 and Chorus 🎤. The ceremony culminated with the band’s moving Salute to Armed Forces, where we proudly recognized the veterans from each service branch present with a big round of applause! 👏
Thank you to all our veterans for your service and sacrifice! 🙏 Your commitment inspires us all. 💖

🌟 Our 2nd grade students had a great (and chilly!) day exploring the GSU Planetarium, learning all about patterns in the sky, and enjoying some fun at Mill Creek Park afterward! 💫❄️
🗳️ Election Day Fun in Ms. Amari and Ms. Nicky’s Class! 🗳️
Our students learned all about Election Day and the importance of voting. To make it exciting, they held a class campaign featuring two sweet candidates — Oreos and Animal Crackers! Students were given fun voter ID cards, waited in line to check in, voted privately, and then cast their ballots. After voting, each student proudly received an “I Voted” sticker. After all the ballots were counted, Oreos was announced as the winning candidate! 🍪🎉 This engaging hands-on activity helped students experience the voting process firsthand while learning the value of having their voices heard.

What an honor it was to serve our local veterans a full breakfast! Culinary Arts students and instructor Cindy Hart prepared grits and breakfast casseroles, homemade sausage biscuits, honeybun bites, fresh patriotic fruit, pigs in a blanket, and yogurt parfaits. This meal was a small token of our school's appreciation for the many sacrifices made by our country's service men and women. #TheDEN #veteransday
Mrs. Busbie and Ms. Amber’s class created beautiful handprint flags to honor and show appreciation for our veterans! ❤️🤍💙
🥬 Farm to School Freshness! 🥬
We’re excited to share that the lettuce featured in our students’ salads this week and next week comes straight from Lanes Bridge Lettuce in Odum, GA!
This crisp, locally grown lettuce is raised with care by farmer Sonya Jones, who takes pride in growing healthy, delicious produce right here in our community.
By partnering with local farms, we are able to provide students with fresh, Georgia-grown ingredients while supporting our local agricultural economy.Thank you, Sonya, for helping us serve up farm-fresh goodness in our cafeterias! 🌱🥗

Incredible Student Leadership at FCA Huddle! 🌟
Our CHS FCA huddle met Monday, November 10, 2025, for an uplifting time of fellowship and reflection during club meeting time.
The message was completely student-led, as our amazing FCA student leaders took turns speaking on the powerful theme of grace. Each leader delivered a heartfelt and authentic message, sharing their personal perspective on what grace means: receiving it from God, extending it to others, and learning to give it to ourselves.
It was an inspiring morning of student leadership, faith, and encouragement for everyone! 🙏

Learning History Through Personal Stories 🕊️
Coach Lanier's Advanced World History students engaged in a profound lesson on Germany between WWI and WWII, focusing on the dark tragedy of the Holocaust.
To honor the victims and survivors, students were tasked with creating a memorable wall that tells their individual stories. This project goes beyond dates and facts, helping students connect with the human cost of hatred, and ensuring we never forget the voices lost. 🖤
