At CES this week
Great job today by Calhoun's Cheerleaders and huge thank you to our community business partner, Bowater Credit Union for allowing us to use their facilities. Almost $1000 was raised today at the car wash! Our Calhoun Community always shows up to support our student activities. We are very proud of their hard work! Go Minks!

Many Calhoun parents should be proud to know that their students have now been trained in CPR. We love the concept of well-rounded individuals and have a deep understanding that education goes far beyond the traditional curriculum. Thank you to Coordinated School Health for providing this service to our county's youth!
