January Attendance Tip ✔
Now is the perfect time to build strong attendance habits! Help your child stay on track by ensuring they get to school on time. Simple steps like laying out clothes the night before and turning off devices 30 minutes before bed can make mornings smoother.
Let’s keep the momentum going for a great 2025! 🐝🎒✏️🎓

Recently, our CCS Nutrition Team brought a “Taste of Calhoun” to a few Calhoun Elementary classes, giving students the chance to try out some new menu options like beef tacos, chicken tacos, pupusas, white chicken chili, turkey nuggets, and two kinds of taco meat. With thumbs up, smiles, and honest feedback, students had a blast taste-testing each dish and sharing what they thought. This fun experience gave students a voice in shaping our school meals and let them connect with the nutrition team in a hands-on way.
