Former UGA and New England Patriots star Malcolm Mitchell visited our middle and high school students for a special Lunch & Learn event, sharing his incredible journey from Valdosta, GA, to Super Bowl champion and published author. With honesty and passion, he spoke about overcoming struggles with reading and how he realized that if he worked as hard at reading as he did at football, he could accomplish anything he set his mind to. He discussed the power of literacy and how making positive choices can shape the future. Malcolm encouraged all students to be lifelong learners, emphasizing that committing to education can open doors to endless possibilities! Malcolm shared, "If I can be a picture book author after not reading for 21 years, you can do anything!"

“Mrs. Huling is an excellent math teacher who works hard to ensure her students are learning. Additionally, she does a lot for CCHS as a whole by being the head of the student council and a director of the CCHS One Act Play. She goes above and beyond for her students trying to ensure they are successful! She loves CCHS and is dedicated to her students.”
