Student of the Week

Superintendent's Message

National Principal’s Month

October is National Principal’s Month and I want to express my gratitude to each of our principals for the dedication they make to CISD and their respective campuses. We are truly blessed to have an outstanding team of leaders.
 
Thank you to Mrs. Meredith Wiley, Ms. Krystal Heflin, Dr. Paige Lloyd, Mr. Landry Watters, Mrs. Angie McLeod, Mrs. Allison French, Mrs. Lisa Parker, and Mr. Connor Robison.  

Student of the Week

We are proud to recognize Brynlee Hipp, an 8th grader at Canton Junior High, as our Student of the Week!
 
Brynlee has been a part of Canton ISD since Kindergarten. Her favorite subject is Math, and she is active in volleyball, basketball, track, and UIL Dictionary Skills. Outside of school, Brynlee enjoys playing sports, and when she looks to the future, she’s interested in becoming a chiropractor or pursuing a career in sports medicine. A fun fact about Brynlee is that she enjoys going to the lake with her family, riding the boat, and inner tubing.
 
Mrs. McLeod shared: 
“Brynlee is a student who consistently leads by example both in the classroom and as an athlete. She is hardworking, dependable, and focused—someone who avoids distractions, takes care of business, and always goes above and beyond. Brynlee’s positive attitude, determination, and commitment to excellence make her a standout student and role model at CJH.”
 
Way to #SoarWithPurpose, Brynlee!
