Thank you Deuce Rolle for his KINDNESS in cleaning up the paper that overflowed from the trash can without anyone asking. I really appreciate you helping keep our classroom space clean.


Sophomores will be working with the College Counseling team during drop periods Wednesday, March 27th.  This is a mandatory session to set up and start using the new career software, YouScience.  Sophomores should report to the CUBE during drops with laptops/chargers.


Hi guys! I will be hosting an event on Saturday, March 30th from 1pm to 4pm at Kadi Fit in Cornelius, North Carolina. There will be a community workout from 1pm to 2pm. Kadi Fit owners Katie and Mike Dixon will be working with me that afternoon to speak about a healthy mindset around body image, intuitive eating, confidence, and self-love. Katie Dixon will be speaking around 2:15, and Clean Juice will be catered until around 4pm while people relax and reflect on their concepts of self-love and self-worth in their own lives.

Hey guys! My name is Clara Kinken and I am looking for volunteers for my Capstone! The only requirements are that you are a member of the Cannon community (teachers, faculty, and parents are all welcome in addition to students) and speak a language, other than English, fluently. I am recording videos of speakers for WikiTongues, a language preservation organization. If you are at all interested in helping me please email me (ckinken@cannonschool.org) so that we can set up a time to record! Thank you!

Hello fellow cougars,
My name is Andrew Aldous. I’m a senior and I am hosting a book drive for my capstone. The book drive is to support my Eagle Project which were free community libraries at 3 public elementary schools.

I am in need of book donations for children 4-11 years old. The drive will be from March 25th to April 5th. There will be 3 donation bins setup and clearly marked around the school.  So clean out any old book shelves you have and I look forward to your support.


Hey everyone! I’m Angel Brown and for my Capstone, I am organizing a Spoken Word Showcase on Tuesday, March 26 in the CPAC at 7 pm. The cost of admission is $5 for Cannon students and for other guests, a donation of any amount. All the money raised will go to the World Literacy Foundation to buy books and provide tutoring and literacy resources for children in need all around the world. Please come out to see your talented classmates and a few of my friends perform for a cause.

Maddie Johnson and Stephanie Grissom are looking for volunteers for their biorex project! Please only fill out the form if you can commit to all three dates:
TODAY
4/2
4/9
We will only need the first ten minutes of your lunch! So please refrain from bringing food! If you show up, you will be taking a very short multiplication test in the testing center! All three days will be under different conditions (listening to different music selections)! There will be candy if you volunteer! We would really appreciate your help! Our goal is to have at least 15 volunteers!”
Thanks so much!
Sincerely,
Stephanie Grissom and Maddie Johnson
