Great adult learning happening at CCHS today! Our teachers are learning how to help our students be the best readers they can be!



To recognize the important job of a school counselor, Governor Asa Hutchinson has proclaimed February 3rd through February 7th, 2020 as National School Counseling Week in Arkansas. CCSD would like to take this opportunity to recognize our two outstanding school counselors for their dedication to our students. Mrs. Susan Morgan, high school counselor with 18 years in education, and Mrs. Carol Crow, elementary counselor with 31 years in education, both prove everyday that they are here for our students. We could not ask for two better people for the job. Thank you for all you do!
