Students at Claxton Middle School had the opportunity to explore the pathways that are offered at Claxton High School. CHS students from the CTAE classes at The Den, along with their teachers, set up stations in the CMS gym and allowed CMS students to ask questions and learn about the pathways that will be offered to them when they enter high school. We hope this opportunity will help our students choose a career path and become successful and productive members in society. #TheDEN #workforceready #4Cs

Mrs. Shepherd's 3rd grade students created a movie from the play, Stone Soup! Students collaborated, communicated, and took on individual roles to record each scene.
Students all learned how to use iMovie, a green screen, and an internet image to give each scene a background that represented their setting. #CES #ExcellenceLeadershipFamily

The deadline for essays is February 1. Information about this contest, including essay topics, is in the 2024 Cohort Google Classroom.

Congratulations to Juan Patricio Ramos! Juan became the third student in the pre-apprenticeship program with Ogeechee Technical College, Claxton Poultry, and The DEN. Students in this program complete college coursework in Manufacturing Engineering Technology (or other high-demand fields) while earning on-the-job experience. Pre-apprentices work under an assigned mentor, meet monthly with members of Human Resources to acquire additional job and soft skills, and are considered for regular raises based on their performance in the program. The DEN is appreciative of this partnership that benefits our students and community.

Mrs. Herrington and Mrs Morris’s class have been discussing winter. They talked about the kinds of clothes we should wear, how it feels outside during winter, and drew a snowman with their friends. They ended the week by making snow out of baking soda and shaving cream. The whole class got to play in the snow and take some home. #CES #ExcellenceLeadershipFamily
