Choctaw County High School

Choctaw County High School Seniors, Ella Power and Kate Beard, shadowed Mrs. Anna Stackhouse (labor/delivery/postpartum nurse) at Baptist in Jackson, MS. Ella and Kate experienced a true shift and shadowed a full 12 hours. While shadowing they were able to check vital signs on mothers and babies, give a baby a bath, and change bedding. They worked so hard the only picture they took was while resting for a minute. Ella and Kate loved this shadowing experience and cannot wait to become nurses. 

On Tuesday, February 18th, CCHS & CCJH will hold Picture Day for all school clubs, spring sports, and select make-up sports pictures. These photos will be included in the yearbook. If your student is involved in band, color guard, boys' golf, track, archery, powerlifting, choir, Beta Club, SGA, HOSA, FFA, SkillsUSA, e-sports, FCA, library aide, office aide, or any other school organization, they must be present to have their picture taken for the yearbook. There will be no make-up day for these pictures.

Choctaw County High School Seniors enjoyed a visit from Mr. Banks and his colleagues with the MSU Extension Offices. Each CCR class participated in the "Real World Simulation" to learn about making good choices. The seniors were shocked to learn how much childcare, insurance, housing, groceries, and many other expenses are. Today was a fun learning experience for them. 

The Junior high office will be closed for several days, we will update you all as soon as it is open again, We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, the ladies in our high School will be glad to help you in any way possible. Thanks for understanding and again we do apologize.

Choctaw County High School Senior, Izzy Vowell, enjoyed her shadowing experience at Columbus Orthopedic in Starkville. Izzy was able to see evaluations and physical therapy sessions. This experience was very positive for Izzy and helped to solidify that her goal is to be a Physical Therapist.
