I want all of you to know that I have been fired up lately!  I am fired up about the spirit, service, and commitment educational excellence I have seen at Corsicana High School.  I am so thankful that we have a school full of compassionate, caring, and kind people. Here are 3 things that you can do to join me in this excitement I have been feeling lately!

*Get involved-School is much more exciting when you are involved in something.  This is for students and staff.  There is a club or an activity for you.

*Set goals-Set reasonable attainable goals for yourself.  You know what you need to improve on.  Set a goal, and make it happen!

*Be positive-When you have a positive attitude, your outlook is that much better. If you have an idea about how to make something better at CHS, let us know.  No one is perfect, but we all want to get better.

This week will be extremely busy at Corsicana High School.  One of the big activities that will take place is a round of benchmarks for the English I and English II EOC exams.  Students will take English I on Thursday and English II on Friday.

We will have our first “New Graduation Requirements” meeting this Tuesday at 6:00 pm.  The first meeting was canceled because of the weather.  All incoming freshman (current 8th graders) and their parents are invited to attend.  We will give general information and information on all 5 endorsement areas.

Please do not forget that school will be dismissed at 11:00 am on Monday, February 17, 2014.  Buses will run at 11:30 am.  Lunch will be from 11:00-11:30 am.

Seniors, please make sure you bring your college acceptance letters to Mrs. Dockery in the assistant principal’s office.  We want to showcase your success!
