On March 31, 2023, CMS held its March BAM (Behavior, Attendance, and no Missing Assignments) event. There were approximately 70 students who were invited to attend. These students were treated to cotton candy, inflatable axe throwing, inflatable skee ball, giant jenga, corn hole games, face painting and tattoos, and some great music. All this took place outside on a beautiful sunny day. We are very proud of our students who had great behavior, great attendance, and no missing assignments for the month of March. We hope that our BAM events motivate all students to strive for success!
Our 7 Mindsets Focus for the week is "Receive Gracefully." When good things come into our lives, we should accept them with open arms. If you are working hard and doing great things, people will notice, and they will tell you. Say thank you when people give you a compliment. Say thank you when people say you have worked hard. Just say thank you!
Don't forget that tomorrow is Tiger Pride Day! Wear you house colors to earn points for your house!
May your Easter be as bright and colorful as a rainbow, with hope, love, and happiness shining down on you and your loved ones. Happy Easter, everyone! #CES
These Easter eggs weren't hard to find!
Just before spring break, Culinary Arts students participated in a self-directed lab. Olivia Mejia chose to make this beautiful Easter bread. The process involved boiling and dying eggs, making and shaping homemade bread, and drizzling white icing to finish the bread nest.
Happy Easter!
#TheDEN #creativity
Our favorite CMS-CHS Easter Bunnies had a fun day dyeing eggs for the students at the CMS-CHS cafe. This is a project that they all enjoy each year.
Have you ever had a problem that you had to try multiple ways to solve?
Check out our high school kiddos in Ms. Watkins' algebra class. Students collaborated with peers to experiment with four different strategies to solve a problem. At the end of the week, they had to create and share problems that could be solved using multiple strategies!

April Lunch Menus
During the 2023 CHS Prom, attendees voted for Prom Queen, King, Princess, and Prince. We would like to congratulate (left to right) Prom Queen Saniyah Williams, Prom King Andre' Mincey, Prom Prince Nick Snellgrove, Prom Queen Mel Smith, and Prom Princess Alayna Young.
At Claxton Middle School, we are teaching our students that making a first impression is very important. Right now, we are working on greeting others with a firm handshake and eye contact. We are also practicing a rule from Ron Clark's Essential 55: "Quickly learn the name of other teachers in the school and greet them by saying things like, "Good morning." We hope that preparing our students to make a good first impression will prepare them for future job interviews and successful careers.
Spring Pictures are next week!
Kindergarten pictures will be on Monday, April 10 (due to a field trip on Tuesday)
All other grade levels pictures will be on Tuesday, April 11.
Proofs will be sent home afterwards as well as online ordering will be available.
On Saturday, April 1, 2023, CHS held their prom, Midnight in New Orleans, at Spring Hollow Events in Daisy. A great time was had by all. Our students and staff looked great in their formal attire, and they danced the night away. Thank you to everyone who helped make it a success.
