Students were inspired by his insights into leadership, hard work, and what it takes to run a successful business. Thank you, Mr. Liberatore, for investing your time and experience in our future leaders! #CTAEdelivers #OurHeartOurFuture

Congratulations to our Red Ribbon Week Art Contest winners! 🧩🎨

This year’s theme, “Life is a Puzzle, Solve It Drug Free,” inspires us to make positive choices that build a brighter future.

The annual Art Poster Contest features the winning artwork on display and a family reception at the Harris Arts Center — celebrated by the Gordon County Chamber of Commerce and Mannington Mills, kicking off a week of community-wide events promoting a drug-free future.

We look forward to next week’s Red Ribbon Week dress-up days as we celebrate making healthy, drug-free choices together!

Proud of our Calhoun Elementary Character Club honorees who are living out and leading with #Knowledge each day! Congratulations to these students and to teacher Michelle Noffsinger on this well-deserved recognition.

One month ago, our Jacket family lost one of its most dedicated champions, Mr. Eddie Reeves.

During the Homecoming Game, Calhoun City Schools honored his life and legacy with a special pregame tribute. The CCS Board of Education, CHS administration, and the Calhoun Touchdown Club joined the Reeves family in presenting a plaque for the press box and a memorial paver for Jacket Pride Park. A moment of silence and a moving National Anthem by his daughter, Bailey Reeves, made the tribute complete.

In continued recognition of his service and impact, the Calhoun City Schools Board of Education will honor Mr. Reeves during the Monday, October 27 meeting with a special presentation and the naming of the Eddie Reeves Boardroom.

Eddie’s impact continues to shine across our community and hearts. His leadership and love for Calhoun City Schools will forever be part of our tradition of excellence. 🐝

CHS students brought fire safety to life this week at the Calhoun-Gordon County Library’s "Noni’s Nook", where Mrs. Brown’s Early Childhood Education students and Mrs. Holcomb’s TAP (Teaching as a Profession) pathway students lead weekly story time as part of their hands-on learning experience.

In recognition of Fire Safety Month, they shared Pete the Fire Cat and invited special guests from the Calhoun Fire Department. Toddlers met local firefighters, explored the fire truck, and took home fire hats, while our students led a hands-on graham cracker fire truck activity.

A great day of learning, literacy, and community connection. Proud of these future educators for giving back and inspiring the next generation. 🐝🚒📚
