CHS teacher and coach, Mrs. Hana Oglesby-Hendrix, served as the featured speaker for CHS’s Veterans Day Program this morning. She delivered an inspiring message about the journey military families experience, the courage it takes to face challenges, and how military families, especially the kids in military families, are like dandelions and are committed to thriving wherever they land.
❤️🤍💙
What Mrs. Oglesby-Hendrix didn’t know, is that Dr. Mizell and CHS had arranged for a special homecoming reunion at the end of her speech!
❤️🤍💙
Please join CHS, ECCSS, and our community in welcoming home U.S. Army Sergeant Jordan Hendrix, Sr! We appreciate your service and your family’s sacrifices, and we are SO GRATEFUL for the moment you shared with our CHS students, staff, visiting Veterans, and other community members this morning!
Students in Mrs. Myers’s 6th grade science classes enjoyed a planetarium experience. They enjoyed viewing Destination Solar System provided by Operation Teach. This technology brings the field trip to the students and gives them a chance to see the solar system in a fun and engaging way. #cmstigers
Just a reminder...CMS school picture make-up day is Tuesday, November 15th!
Students learned about light and how shadows form. In pairs, they explored the classroom with a flashlight to determine if a shadow was created, by blocking the light, or not, due to transparency. The class discussed their findings and collaborated to make a chart displaying their findings. #CES #ExcellenceLeadershipFamily
Don't forget!
CHS Make Up Pictures for Underclassmen who missed the initial Picture Day need to plan to have their pictures taken on Tuesday, November 15.
Lots of us have heard the story, 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙒𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝙊𝙡𝙙 𝙇𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙒𝙝𝙤 𝙎𝙬𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝙁𝙡𝙮, but how many have heard about the old lady who swallowed a cat, a boat, a Blow Pop, and more???
Mrs. Phillips and her 2nd-grade students read and studied a mentor text called, 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙒𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝙊𝙡𝙙 𝙇𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙒𝙝𝙤 𝙎𝙬𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝘽𝙖𝙩! After reading the story, these creative young authors used rhyme and rhythm to imitate the mentor text they'd studied and to create their own stories!

The 7 Mindsets focus for this week is "Growing Through Life." Students discussed that we all have obstacles to overcome to be successful. As we encounter obstacles in our life, those obstacles shouldn't keep us from obtaining our dreams, but rather, force us to find another path to achieve them. Adversity will happen, but it's what we do with our adversity that makes us who we are. #7mindsets

11/9, 2:00 PM: Evans County Charter School System (ECCSS) officials are working with Evans County Emergency Management Agency (ECEMA) to closely monitor Tropical Storm Nicole's trajectory and possible impact.
The safety of the students, staff, families, and community we serve is our top priority as we make decisions regarding the weather. Currently the greatest concern is the potential for wind gusts that exceed 40 mph which could impede the safe operation of school buses.
We will continue monitoring the conditions, so please continue to check our Facebook page or website for updates. Based on updates, the district hopes to announce contingency plans by 6:00 P.M. on Wednesday, November 9, 2022, if needed.
