Would you enjoy reading to elementary students? Does the terms "augmented reality" sound cool to you?  Do you want SERVICE LEARNING HOURS without leaving your school? Then look no further!

We are looking for students who would love to learn how to use simple digital tools to help reinvent how technology can be used with our youngest learners. Things you could create include:

  • Narrating an audio story with sounds telling students when to turn the page giving our youngest readers hundreds of books.

  • Developing an audio story in another language to give students access to English books narrated in their native languages.

  • Creating career pathway adventures for elementary kids to learn about careers in Virology, Photography, Painting, Engineer, and ER Veterinarians to list a few.


We need your help!!  Use the link below to sign up for an informational session in the Media Center during lunch.  Sign up here -->Narrating Stories and Earning Volunteer Service Hours! For any questions, please see Mrs. Jayeola (Jah-yay-Hola) or Mr. MacArthur (Mack-R-thur) in the Media Center, or feel free to email them with questions [obalogun@chccs.k12.nc.us and tmacarthur@chccs.k12.nc.us].


Alright, STOP, collaborate and listen...the Principles of Family and Human Services class is hosting a Winter Warm Up clothing drive THIS WEEK.

Please take a moment to check your closets and bring any items to room D124 by the end of Thursday, and help keep your community warm this winter. We can do this! Any questions can be routed to Mrs. Cathcart. Now, clean out those closets!
