Our Junior High Academic team wrapped up their season with an awards banquet on Wednesday. The team took home the third-place trophy for the Chisholm Trail Conference. Coen Taylor and Lexi Richardson earned All-Conference honors, and Coen also placed third in individual scoring.

A favorite Christmas tradition in Mrs. Jech’s class is Cocoa & Canvas! Each year, Mrs. Jech’s grandma, Carol Koehn, joins the class to lead a guided painting that students get to take home and treasure. This year marks nine wonderful years of this special tradition. 🎅🏼🎨✨

The Canton Tournament starts Thursday. Come out and support the Chieftains and Lady Chieftains all three days.

Canton Public Schools asked us to help spread the word about a Coat Drive happening during the Canton Basketball Tournament. If you plan on attending, consider bringing a new coat to donate!

Each new coat gets you two free entry tickets for Saturday’s games.

State Runner-Up!

Huge congratulations to Cash Walling (8th Grade) and Korder Jacobs (9th Grade) on an incredible run in today’s OKSE Virtual State Playoffs for Fortnite Boxfights.

They battled through a tough bracket to finish as State Runner-Up, marking Calumet High School Esports’ 3rd State Runner-Up award in school history.

Proud of these guys!

After competing in the OKSE Regional Playoffs in Laverne yesterday for Fortnite Elimination Race, Cash & Korder are back at it today in Calumet as they compete in the OKSE Virtual Playoffs for Fortnite Box Fights.

Our 3rd & 4th Grade GT students competed in their very first online academic competition today! They kicked things off with the Science test and are already gearing up for the Fine Arts round next. We’re so proud of their hard work and excitement for learning! 🎉📚🌟

🍂 Sixth Grade Fun! 🍂 Our sixth graders had an amazing day creating “talking sticks” to take to their Thanksgiving celebrations—perfect for passing around the table as everyone shares what they’re thankful for. On top of that, students split into groups for a little hands-on holiday cooking! They whipped up Rice Krispie pumpkins, Special K cookies, saltine cracker toffee, Chex Mix, and ranch pretzels. A huge thank-you to Mrs. Katy Towell, Mrs. Amanda Garrett, and Mrs. Young for volunteering and leading our groups of young chefs. We appreciate you! 🧡🦃

🎈 Congratulations to our 5th & 6th Grade Balloon Winners! 🎈 We had a blast in ELA this week! Inspired by the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, students designed their very own parade “balloon” and wrote a persuasive paragraph explaining why their creation deserved to win. Our winners were selected based on both the strength of their writing and the creativity of their final masterpiece. We are so proud of the effort, imagination, and persuasive skills shown by all our students!
