Our CCA (College and Career Academy) Ambassadors are so much more than student representatives—they are school leaders, role models, and a voice for our student body! 🎙️✨
Here’s how our Ambassadors are leading by example and making an impact:
🏫 Welcoming Stakeholders: They lead school-wide tours of Claxton High School, share their personal experiences, and help visitors discover what makes our CCA, The Den, so special.
🤝 Inspiring Future Leaders: Through advisement sessions with younger students, Ambassadors encourage them to explore new opportunities and see their own leadership potential.
💛 Serving the Community: Beyond campus, they put leadership into action through hands-on community engagement and service-learning projects.

Mrs. McGlashan’s first graders have been busy exploring the power of magnets! Students investigated how magnets work and discovered some of the many ways we use them in everyday life.
Through hands-on exploration, our young scientists are learning to observe, gather evidence, explain their thinking, and communicate what they discover.
From refrigerator magnets and toys to latches and name tags, magnets are all around us!
🏠 Try it at home: Ask your first grader to go on a magnet hunt and see how many everyday uses for magnets they can find!


🧀🍋 Learning Our Way Through the Maze!
Over the past two weeks, our High School Transitions students have participated in a book study of Who Moved My Cheese? The story helped students explore important lessons about change, fear, adaptability, perseverance, and continuing to move forward when life does not go according to plan.
On Friday, August 28, they brought those lessons to life with a cheese-tasting experience! Students sampled several unfamiliar cheeses, explored different cracker options, and created their own flavored lemonades. Their reactions were definitely mixed 😂, but the real challenge was being willing to step outside their comfort zones and try something new.
Each cheese represented something students may encounter as they transition to high school—new friendships, academic challenges, discovering their identity, unexpected opportunities, changing goals, and planning for the future. Just as every cheese did not look, smell, or taste familiar, every new high school experience may not initially feel comfortable. However, students are learning that growth often begins with an open mind and the courage to explore the unfamiliar.
This activity was a fun and meaningful way to remind our students: When the cheese moves, we do not give up—we adjust, keep moving through the maze, and search for new opportunities! 🐭🧀

Our 7th-grade Tigers in Mrs. Kelly LaSala’s science class took learning to the airwaves today! Students collaborated in teams to record their very own podcasts exploring the Environmental Impacts of an Erupting Volcano. 🌋🎧

Way to bring science to life, 7th grade! 🔬💡✨

Coach Lanier’s World History classes kicked off their new unit on the Renaissance and Scientific Revolution with a dynamic, fast-paced collaborative activity! ⏳✨
Here’s how our Tigers brought history to life:
🎓 Becoming Experts: Each student was assigned a key figure, concept, or invention to master.
🤝 Finding "Connections": Students rotated through quick 1-on-1 exchanges to share their expertise and analyze whether their historical topics shared a meaningful connection—and why! 💡
By collaborating, networking, and analyzing how big historical movements align, our students are tackling new ideas with one shared purpose under One Roar! 🐅🖤💛

Our CES students worked hard last week taking their Fall MAP Growth assessments in Reading and Math, and we are so proud of their effort! 📈✨
Students who met their Fall MAP goals got to celebrate their hard work with a delicious ice cream sundae! 🍨🎉
Now, the goal is set for winter! 🎯 Teachers will be working with students to set their Winter MAP goals, and we’re encouraging our Tigers to give their best effort every single day. We can’t wait to see how much they grow when we test again in December!
Set a goal. Work hard. Grow every day. 💪📖🧮
