Student Announcements for Monday, November 24

Good Morning!


Our CHS Quiz Bowl Team participated in Winston-Salem's Tournament on Saturday.
Both of our teams did really well, with A finishing 2nd and B finishing 3rd. This is the first time four people from our team have placed in the top 10 in one tournament with James (6th), Adam (8th), Santul (2nd), and Max (9th). A number of our CHS students placed just outside the top ten.  First-time tournament-goers Ben and Claude were also outstanding!
Congratulate our Quiz Bowl members when you see them!


Lost and found items will be displayed in the Cafe Commons during lunch.

A Message from Carrboro High School

A message from CARRBORO HIGH SCHOOL
Hello.  This is Principal LaVerne Mattocks with updates for Carrboro High School families.  As we enter the holiday season, it is important for all students to attend school daily and focus on having a strong push into the second quarter.  Our instructional focus goals for the year are to use writing as an improvement strategy, implement strategies for teaching content-specific vocabulary in context of what students are learning, and improve achievement for all students while reducing our achievement gaps.  Continue to discuss what is going on in our classes with your child to hopefully learn of the ways we are making progress toward these goals.  
Announcements:

Tuesday, November 25:
To Hospitality Helpers:
The Carrboro High Hospitality Committee invites you to help treat our staff and teachers to a warm and savory Thanksgiving lunch in the Media Center Lounge beginning at 11:45 am.  Please feel free to bring dishes in crock pots to keep them warm and prepare enough to serve at least eight people.  The Hospitality Committee is asking you to SIGN UP NOW PLEASE! This requires a lot of effort and the PTSA needs your assistance. To sign up, go to: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0f4daaac28a2fa7-staff

The committee is asking for various types of hearty chili, soups and stews to celebrate the season. French bread, biscuits, banana nut bread, and desserts will be most appreciated. Let the committee know if your dish is an old family recipe because teachers appreciate knowing bits of trivia like this. Please label your soups. Some vegetarian options are needed. Thank you for your help.

Wednesday, November 26: Optional Teacher Workday for faculty/staff and no school for students

Thursday and Friday, November 27 and November 28:  Holidays for faculty/staff and students

Wednesday, December 3: Annual Culture Fest beginning at 6:00 pm.  This is a Carrboro tradition that includes a potluck dinner with international dishes, talent show, and informative exhibits of student work.  Please make plans to join us.  If you are interested in participating in any way, contact one of the event organizers, Anthony Swaringen, at (919)918-2200.

Families, we still need your help in making morning drop-off go smoothly. Please drive as far as possible to the right of the front circle to allow as many students as possible to enter the school at any given time. Thank you for your help with this.

As always, feel free to contact the school with questions at (919)918-2200 or visit our website at chs.chccs.k12.nc.us. In this season of reflection, I would like to say that of the many things for which I am thankful, I'm extremely honored to be a part of the Carrboro High School community. To all Jaguar families, I wish you a joyous Thanksgiving.

A Message from Carrboro High School -Morning Drop-Off Procedures

Good morning Carrboro families.  

This is a message from Principal LaVerne Mattocks regarding Morning Drop-Off procedures.  It has come to my attention that many families are stopping directly in front of the Main Entrance of the school during Morning Drop-Off from 8:15 - 8:45 so students can walk straight through the front door.  This is creating a bottle-neck and increasing the time spent in the traffic line.  Please remember to completely round the front circle in front of the school and pull all the way to the far right end of the sidewalk to allow more students to be dropped off at any given time.  We greatly appreciate your immediate attention to this matter.  We will continue efforts to assist in remedying this situation.  Remember all the way through the circle helps avoid a traffic buckle!  Have a great day!
