This week is Banned Books Week! It's a time to celebrate your freedom to read! Books featured during this week have been targeted for removal or restricted access to read.  Countless book titles have been challenged or banned, including well known titles such as Winnie the Pooh. Stop by the Media Center to learn about historical and current attempts to censor books in libraries and schools.  Celebrate your right to READ!


After-school tutoring is FINALLY here!  If you need extra help in any of your core classes, come to the Media Center for after-school tutoring on Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning Tuesday, Oct. 1st!  Stop by, sign in, and get tutored!


Attention Jags! Do you need service learning hours?  Consider being a peer tutor during after-school tutoring on Tuesdays/Thursdays!  Help your peers excel in subjects like English, Math 1 & 2, Calculus, Biology, Chemistry, US History, and more!  If you're a rock star in any of these subjects or speak more than one language, consider being a peer tutor today!  Contact Mrs. Jayeola (Jah-yay-hola) - fjayeola@chccs.k12.nc.us  through the email in the announcements.
