Calhoun City Schools will operate on a 2-hour delay, today, January 9, 2024. We want to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and community members, and we encourage you to exercise caution when traveling. Please adjust your child's drop-off time by adding two hours to their regular schedule. Additionally, buses will run two hours behind their usual route times.
We encourage parents, staff and our young drivers to exercise extreme caution on our roads. Again, students and staff should arrive two hours later than they would on a regular school day. Buses will operate on a two-hour delay.

UPDATE (1:50 pm): Calhoun Middle and High School are no longer in lockdown. The lockdown was initiated due to a threatening post on social media. The post was found to be dated from years prior; however, in an abundance of caution, local law enforcement searched areas of the facility and students were held in lockdown. Thank you to everyone for your support as we work to guarantee the safety of our children.
The campus of Calhoun Middle and High School is currently under a lockdown while police investigate a concerning social media posting. We will post as soon as the lockdown is lifted.
At Calhoun City Schools, our leadership team is dedicated to elevating our standards from good to great. Today, our team gathered for our 2024 Strategic Planning meeting, focusing on our mission and excellence in academics, arts, and athletics. With a shared vision, we collaboratively strategized to harness our expertise, shaping innovative approaches that will elevate our culture and engagement, performance and accountability, and enhancing communication and promotion for Calhoun City Schools.
