As part of 7 Mindsets, CMS students are encouraged to be a part of their community and to be helpful to others. Autumn Castle, CMS 6th grader, has stepped up to do just that! She is asking for her classmates, as well as our community to donate to a great cause: our local foster families. If you would like to donate diapers and other needed items to this great cause, please bring items to the office at CMS/CHS, or send with your child to school. See attached flyer for a list of needed items.
There's still lots of March fun planned at the Claxton-Evans County Public Library!
You can get a sneak peek of the awesome literacy events planned for Tigers of all ages in the images below.
Please visit the links below to learn more about all our local public library has planned for our community!

Ecoplastic America, a tier one supplier for Hyundai, visited CHS and The DEN to share career opportunities with seniors interested in manufacturing. The Hyundai bumper maker will be located just twelve miles north of Claxton on Highway 301. Initial hiring will begin in May and continue until the plant opens in October. Anyone who missed this opportunity and has an interest in this type of work should see Holly Durrence for details.

This week, we were thrilled to welcome back Karen Cangemi from Pioneer Valley Books for another enriching professional development session at Claxton Elementary! Our K-2 teachers dove into personalizing learning experiences for their students using the Digital Reader Platform. 🖥️✨
On the Digital Reader, students embark on Reading Adventures, engaging in word study activities, receiving book introductions, and reading high-quality texts that bolster the skills learned in both whole and small group settings. 📖🌈
Our teachers got hands-on training on creating student groups and tailoring book assignments to meet individual learning needs. A huge leap forward in personalizing education for our young Tiger readers!
