As we celebrate Black History Month, we want to take this opportunity to express our appreciation for ALL OF OUR AFRICAN AMERICAN EDUCATORS, PAST AND PRESENT. We would like to acknowledge some of our previous African American employees at the upcoming Board Meeting. We invite you to attend this special gathering honoring these extraordinary former employees. The meeting will be held at LaFayette High School’s auditorium on February 19th at 4:00 PM Central.
On Wednesday, the CCSD joined with the AU East Alabama Regional Inservice Center yesterday to recognize Mrs. Correen Long, our STEAM Teacher at the Eastside-J.P.

Due to a number of our students, teachers, and staff coming from areas still affected by icy road conditions, CCSD will be closed for Students and Staff on Friday the 24th. We have listened to the input from our staff and parents and made this decision for the safety of everyone in the school district. We will return to our regular schedule on Monday.
Chambers County Schools will be back in session and operating our normal schedule on Friday, January 24, 2025. The County EMA and Road Department have been assessing the roads and will treat any remaining icy spots today. Buses will run at their regular time.
📣💜💛
We have been in contact with the Chambers County EMA this morning concerning expected conditions for tomorrow. With the current travel conditions and the uncertainty of travel conditions in the morning, Chambers County Schools will be closed tomorrow January 23rd, for students and staff. No new work will be assigned. We plan to resume normal school operations on Friday.
With the extreme cold forecasted for our area, students will learn virtually Tuesday and Wednesday. Check Google Classrooms for assignments. Stay safe and warm.
