CMHS Thanksgiving Dinner, Tuesday, November 19, 2024.
FAFSA ID workshop with GSU.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid will begin in early December, but we want to help you take the first steps. Seniors and their families are invited to receive help from our partners in education, Glenville State University. Representatives will assist you in setting up your Student and Parent ID. The FAFSA can be daunting, but we are here to help you every step of the way. Reprensentatives will be available from 9:00 to 3:00.
Seniors, do you need help with filling out scholarships? See Ms. Sampson in the College and Career Room every Monday during AA in December. We'll break it down one scholarship at a time!

Calhoun County Schools is working hard to promote attendance and reduce chronic absenteeism. Attendance is an instrumental part of academic success. Getting your child to school on-time, every day, unless they are sick, is something that you can do to ensure your child has a chance to succeed in school. You can promote good attendance when you:
Establish and stick to the basic routines (going to bed early, waking up on time, etc.) that will help your child develop the habit of on-time attendance.
Talk to your child about why going to school every day is critical and important unless they are sick. If your child seems reluctant to go to school, find out why and work with the teacher, administrator or afterschool provider to get them excited about going to school.
Come up with back up plans for who to turn to (another family member, a neighbor or fellow parents) to help you get your child to school if something comes up (e.g. another child gets sick, your car breaks down, etc.).
Reach out for help if you are experiencing tough times (e.g. transportation, unstable housing, loss of a job, health problems) that make it difficult to get your child to school. Other parents, your child’s teacher, principal, social worker, school nurse, afterschool providers or community agencies can help you problem solve or connect you to a needed resource.
If your child is absent, work with the teacher to make sure she or he has an opportunity to learn and make up for the academics missed.

Why send our student representatives to HOBY?
At HOBY, we believe the most valuable resource communities can invest in is their youth. We provide students with an amazing opportunity to learn how to lead and make a difference in the world. We teach young leaders "how to think, not what to think" - creatively, critically, and compassionately.
HOBY Ambassadors will have the distinction of representing their school and state. Students have an unforgettable experience and develop leadership skills that will serve them long into the future.
HOBY is also a highlight of any high school resume. The program is well-known among college admissions officers and provides students with access to additional recognition and scholarships, such as the Presidential Service Award.

With these funds, we plan to upgrade our sports facilities, ensuring safe, high-quality spaces for our students and youth. Additionally, we hope to use part of this funding to purchase playground equipment for Calhoun Middle High School. This levy will support ongoing facility upkeep and necessary equipment purchases, directly benefiting our students and community.
