Student of the Week

Superintendent's Message

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." — Anne Frank  

Student of the Week

Congratulations to our Canton ISD Student of the Week, 9th grader Nick Scott.
 
Nick is the son of John and Candi Scott. He has been a student at CISD since kindergarten, and his favorite subject is history. He is involved in the Art Club and One-Act Play.
 
According to Mrs. Parker:
"Nick consistently looks for ways to help others and does so with a truly generous heart. Last semester, he even took on the role of the Grinch and visited elementary students in neighboring districts to read to them and spread some Christmas spirit. He puts forth his best effort in everything he does, and we're excited to see the great things he will accomplish in the future."

This week is School Counselor's Week, and I want to extend a very special thank-you to our district counselors. A special thank-you to Mrs. Kristy Clayton, Mrs. Kylie Jeffcoat, Mrs. Candace Massey, Mrs. Jennifer Melton, Mrs. Susie Dorman, Mrs. Jennifer Gebert, and Mrs. Jan Parker.
