This week, Dr. Sutton visited Chester Park Arts to observe students improving their reading using the UFLI method. This is an innovative partnership with the University of Florida Literacy Institute which improves literacy outcomes for young children who are learning to read.


This February, let's celebrate the rich tapestry of African American contributions that have shaped our world. From trailblazers who paved the way to those who continue to inspire change, we celebrate the resilience, creativity, and strength of the African American community.

Chester High School has been placed on a Secure Hold due to the school’s front office receiving a threatening phone call. This means that nobody may enter or exit the building. Law enforcement is investigating the area. We will provide updates to parents as needed.


Congratulations to our CCSD Support Staff of the Month for November 2023, Darlene Williams of Great Falls Elementary School! Ms Williams is a dedicated, committed, and loyal staff member. She is always willing to do whatever it takes for the success of students in her community.

These students represented their schools last week during the 2024 CCSD Spelling Bee. The top five will compete in March at the Carolina Panthers Stadium for the state spelling bee for NC and SC district winners!
