November 17, 2023

Happy Thanksgiving Chargers Families!
There are so many reasons to be thankful for during this season and in reality throughout the year: Our amazing PTO for their support and assistance, our staff for all their hard work and dedication to our students and each other, our parents for partnering with our school to create an environment where are students can find success, and our students for their enthusiasm and diligence learning and growing as students and young people
I hope you are able to take this week out of school to spend time with family and friends, eat some great food, and do something fun and enjoyable. Once school resumes on Monday, November 27, we will have a fast and furious 3 1/2 weeks remaining in the first semester.
Cozy Christmas, December 4 - 8. This is an upcoming school activity where our school will be collecting cozy items for veterans and families in need through Operation Angel Wings and the Hope Center. There is a flyer below with additional information about this event.
The deadline to purchase Chisholm Spirit Wear is November 19th! (2-days from now) Information and the link to purchase is below.
Today at Charge Up, we recognized Aime Langdon as the October Teacher of the Month and Tori Kitchel as the November Teacher of the Month. Congratulations Mrs. Langdon and Ms. Kitchel for this recognition! Thank you to the Vandruff Farmers Agency for the gifts that were presented to these teachers along with all the support you've provided to our school and staff over the years.
We would like to thank our PTO for the organization and work with Turkey Bingo last evening. We had a great turnout and it is a great way to see and interact with other Chisholm families outside of school. I would also like to thank New Covenant for allowing our school use their facility to host this event. The pastor at New Covenant shared with me last night that when their church opened in 1977 that they used our school for services until they could get their building constructed. It was was a full-circle moment that we were using their facility for our event.
The November PTO minutes are listed below along with the minutes from previous PTO meetings throughout the year.
