Tomorrow starts Red Ribbon Week. This is a week dedicated to talking about making healthy choices by avoiding the use and abuse of smoking, vaping, alcohol, and drugs. These conversations are so important in a world where the use of these things becomes normalized. In the K-6, there will be dress-up days, guidance lessons, and a special presentation to teach our kiddos about making safe choices. It will be a short week jam-packed with information and a great opportunity for conversations at home!
FCCLA, with the help of Mrs. Terryberry and Mrs. Rau, worked to make fresh pasta tonight. If you have a preorder, it will be available for pickup from 12-1pm tomorrow in the FACS classroom in the back/north side of the school. Please do not walk on the new concrete slab in front of the woods classroom as it was just set today. You can also pickup Monday through the office. Thank you for your support.

Another AMAZING week here at Chase County Schools, and another group of fabulous kids! These are this weeks PBIS winners. These kiddos are just some of our many safe, respectful, and responsible students. They showed these characteristics by volunteering to help clean up the cafeteria by picking up a napkin or wiping up a tiny spill. They were first to be quiet and set an example for others in the classroom. They helped friends when they need it and much more!
FCCLA is hosting our annual K-4 Pumpkin Party on Thursday, 10/26/23, from 3:30-5:00pm in the CCS Cafeteria. If you would like for your child to attend, please click the link below to sign up. Please sign up using your child's name. Thank you.
