One of our career education programs has earned national recognition! The Creekview High School chapter of the FFA agricultural education program this week was named a 2026 3 Star Chapter, the highest honor awarded by the National FFA Organization. Less than 10% of chapters nationwide achieve this honor, which recognizes demonstrated success in growing leaders, building communities, and strengthening the local agriculture industry.
Happy first week of the best school year ever! Our School Board members and Superintendent of Schools Mary Elizabeth Davis visited schools across our district this week to see learning in action. During their stops, they saw our students learning more, growing more, and achieving more as they popped in classrooms, and they thanked our teachers, support staff, and school leaders for their dedication and excellence.
Please check out the August edition of our CCSD Connections newsletter online here to learn more about our work to become the highest performing school district in Georgia! Thank you to our newsletter sponsor, Credit Union of Georgia, a CCSD Partner. #CCSDElevateTheExcellence
