🥶 Happy Groundhog Day!

Punxsutawney Phil and Beau have spoken, and they’re BOTH calling for six more weeks of winter.

BUT… this is Georgia. So we’ll keep our fingers crossed 🤞 for some sunshine and warmer days ahead!

Congratulations to all of the CCSD Spelling Bee winners! We hope you enjoy the trophies!

“Apostrophe” was the winning word for an E.T. Booth Middle School student at the 2026 Cherokee County School District Spelling Bee! Eighth-grader Miller Inthirathvongsy placed first in the competition held this week at Cherokee High School. Arnold Mill ES fourth-grader Vanya Singh earned second place; Sixes ES fifth-grader Griffin Mincey, third place; and Oak Grove ES STEAM Academy fourth-grader Mac Wells, fourth place. All four students now advance to the Region Bee on Feb. 28. State winners advance to the Scripps National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C. in June. Congratulations to our students and their teachers, thank you to our partners, and thank you to our School Board for its laser focus on ensuring our students are learning more, growing more, and achieving more in our classrooms than they could anywhere else!
