The CHS Beta Club sponsored its first annual Say Yes to the Dress event last week. Over 130 prom dresses were donated to the club, allowing the CHS young ladies the opportunity to find a dress of their choice for prom. The event was a success, with 21 young ladies securing a dress for prom. The Beta Club plans to continue this event each year. If you would like to donate a dress, CHS Beta Club accepts dresses on an on-going basis, and they will be used at next year's event. #BlackAndGold #MakingMemories #Tradition

It’s an American icon found in nearly every U.S. town and city, so of course Claxton has one. You can find several of our WBL students at work here- in the Claxton McDonald’s! Featured (left to right) are sisters Olivia and Noemi Mejia, both CHS seniors. You may remember that Olivia qualified to compete in a national culinary competition last summer, and her post-graduation plan is to obtain work as a chef. Noemi’s post-graduation plan is to pursue higher education to obtain a degree in the area of Physical Therapy. These two ambitious young ladies have plans, and they soon will graduate fully prepared to set them in motion. CHS will be cheering you on! Way to go, Olivia and Noemi! #BlackAndGoldBuildingSuccess #TheDEN


CHS Baseball fans- due to weather concerns, only the varsity baseball team will play in Savannah today versus Jenkins High School. There will be no JV baseball game today. #BlackAndGold

Pathful Explore is an online platform that helps students explore careers and colleges, build skills, and create plans for life after high school. The Feb. 22, 2024 visit with Kathy Riner provided CHS students with an in-depth walkthrough of the platform's key features and how to get the most out of using Explore as students think about their future career and education plans. This training equipped students to fully leverage the platform as they explore their options and create their unique plans for the future. #LifeAfterHighSchool #RealLife #BlackAndGoldBuildingSuccess
