Principal's Message

Good afternoon CHS students and families,

It has been another amazing week at Canby High School. It is Homecoming Week, and we have enjoyed decorated halls, dress up days, and assemblies. We are looking forward to the parade this evening, the game tomorrow, and the dance on Saturday.

In addition to the Homecoming festivities, soccer hosted a Staff Appreciation Night, and the College and Career Center held a well attended evening. Fall Sports and our many clubs are in full swing. FFA recently attended a leadership camp and marketing is working hard to get the student store up and running. Please visit the student store booth at Friday’s football game to pick up some Canby gear.

CHS offers a variety of activities for students to participate in. I hope students are finding their niche and encourage all to explore other ways to engage at CHS.

Please save the date for conferences, coming up on Wednesday, October 18. We are pleased to offer both in person and Zoom options for conferences and are excited to have another opportunity to show off the new wing.

Have a wonderful week!

Best,

Cari Sloan

Canby High School Principal
