Spreading Love, One Card at a Time ❤️ CHS freshman Citlaly Hernandez-Ramirez has a heart for serving others and leadership, always looking for ways to make a difference. Every weekend, as she travels to Metter, she passes by a rehabilitation center and notices an elderly woman sitting at the window, gazing outside. This sight made her wonder—do the residents there receive Valentine’s Day cards? That simple yet powerful thought sparked an idea. Citlaly decided to create 80 handmade Valentine’s Day cards to spread love and joy to the residents of the rehab center. Wanting to make an even greater impact, she brought her idea to the Claxton High School leadership class and asked Mrs. Francis if her peers would help bring this vision to life. Without hesitation, the CHS Leadership team jumped on board, working together to craft heartfelt messages for the residents. Now, thanks to Citlaly’s compassion and leadership, the CHS leadership team is hard at work, ensuring that each resident will receive a special Valentine’s card filled with love and encouragement. This project is a beautiful reminder that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. ❤️ Let’s continue to spread love and brighten someone’s day! #CHSLeadership #SpreadingLove #ValentinesDayKindness #ServantLeadership

Small Group Reading with Students with Teacher
Students in iTeach Maker Club were fully immersed in storytelling and coding with Sphero BOLT! The room was silent during the planning phase—you could have heard a pen drop as they carefully crafted their stories. Then, as they executed their code, the classroom transformed into a vibrant scene of movement, light, and sound! They explored asynchronous and synchronous programming, utilized delay blocks, and brought their creativity to life in ways that were both engaging and educational. From scary stories to high-speed chases, their stories filled the room, showcasing the perfect blend of literacy, creativity, and computer science. This hands-on learning experience kept students captivated from start to finish, proving that coding isn’t just about logic—it’s about storytelling too!
