“To the world, you may be just one person, but to one person, you may be the world.” – Dr. Seuss

Congratulations to our Canton ISD Student of the Week, 8th grader Jayden Allgood. Jayden is the son of Melton and Destinee Allgood. His favorite subject is math and he enjoys playing football. Outside of school he enjoys spending time with family, going to church and playing on his XBox. 

Jayden Allgood, 8th grader at CJH, is a remarkable student who embodies kindness, respect, and integrity. His kindness towards others, unmatched effort in the classroom and his respectful nature make him a role model for his peers.We are so fortunate to have Jayden as part of our school community. He represents the best of what we hope to nurture in all our students—kindness, empathy, and a strong moral character. We are incredibly proud of him and excited to see all the great things he will accomplish in the future!

Congratulations to our FFA Agriculture Advocacy Team of Natalie Garcia, Ashton Herrera, Casey Conway, and Bailey Koonce who were Semi-Finalists at the State Leadership Development Events. Our Floral Design hosted the Celebration of Christmas Carols Floral Design Challenge at the Civic Center on Wednesday. In total almost 500 contestants participated. 

This past week our Canton Junior High band and choir did amazing with their Christmas concerts. Next week is the high school’s turn. I would encourage everyone to come out and watch our talented students perform. Our Junior High One Act Play had a successful showing at district with Caleb Abbott named to the All Star Cast, Hannah Walker as Honorable Mention All Star Cast and Levi Ridgeway and Maddie Carlos as Outstanding Crew. 

On Monday night our 7B, 7A, and 8A Eagles took wins over Van. The junior high Eaglettes 7B, 7A, and 8A all took wins over the Lady Vandals as well.  Last weekend our varsity Eaglettes finished runner-up in the highly competitive Winnsboro Tournament. On Friday night our JV and varsity Eaglettes defeated Brownsboro to start district play. Our Eagles had a solid weekend in the highly competitive Martins Mill Tournament capturing wins over Corsicana Mildred, Hawkins, and Brookeland.
