Changing of the Guard 3rd quarter

This year we are piloting a change to our Student Government. Instead of having one Student Body President for the duration of the school year, each House Captain is leading the student body for one quarter. 

Our third quarter Student Body President was House Sapientia Captain, Lee Williamsen!

At the end of third quarter it was time for Lee to step down and hand the job of SG President over to our next Captain! Per our CCS tradition, Lee signed our CCS sword!

House Audacia Pet Food Drive

House Audacia partnered with Cabarrus County’s Meals on Wheels to host a school wide Pet Food Drive! Many of the people who benefit from Meals on Wheels have pets that they are unable to feed. House Audacia was able to collect and donate 424 pounds of dry dog and cat food!

Grammar School students brought in 253 pounds of pet food!

House Sapientia won the House competition bringing in 87.6 pounds of pet food!

House Audacia brought in 74.3 pounds of food!

House Constantia contributed 5.15 pounds of pet food!

House Fides came in 4th place with 4.1 pounds of dry pet food.

Once all of the food was donated- House Audacia spent hours separating and packaging the food into one gallon ziplock bags! Well done House Audacia!

Thank you to everyone who donated pet food to Cabarrus County Meals on Wheels!
