Today was the start of a great partnership between CHS and Mark Twain as High School students from Kermit's Cove spent their first day serving as a teacher helper at Mark Twain. CHS students will spend every M,W,F at Mark Twain helping in a PreK or Kindergarten classroom. We look forward to watching CHS and Mark Twain students grow and succeed through this program!! #leaderinme #twaincusd1 #chscusd1 #weareone #futureteachers

Reflecting back to two weeks ago. At Meet the Teacher, families wrote their child's name on the blacktop for them to find the next day as a reminder that their parents were thinking of them. It is amazing how much growth we have seen in just 11 school days. Students are rocking the school routines and have acclimated to school so well. We know we only get 178 days with these kids and if the first 11 are an indication, it is going to be an AMAZING year!

It was fun to see so many kids along the parade route!!! Mark Twain's float sure made a statement. We were proud to see two of our alumni voted as Homecoming King and Queen #whereroyalsgettheirstart. We have already started planning our float for next year. Thank you R&W Trucking for the truck and trailer and Ron Heddins for driving! And, thank you to the staff at Mark Twain for being awesome!
Tomorrow we wrap up Homecoming week with red & gold day. #gotrojans ❤️💛❤️💛
