Student of the Week

Congratulations to our Canton ISD Student of the Week, 2nd grader Jaxon Simonek. Jaxon is the son of Robbie and Tember Simonek. Jaxson loves math and likes to do division and arrays. He served on the November Student Council and would like to become a marine biologist. Jaxson likes to play football and go fishing with his dad. He also helps his mom do chores, but it’s not a hobby!

According to Mrs. Lamar, CES Principal, “Jaxon is a jewel. He is a leader in every way at CES. Jaxon has a strong work ethic and leads by example. He brings humor and joy to those around him. It has truly been an honor to have him on our CES team for the last three years. We expect to see him on a video sharing his adventures as a MARINE BIOLOGIST one day!”

District

As we reach the end of another school year I would like to thank our community, our families, staff, and most importantly our students for another fantastic school year. We are truly blessed!

Congratulations to the Class of 2022! Also, I would like to recognize this year’s 2022 Valedictorian, Avery Nicks, Salutatorian, Katie Wilkerson, and Third Highest Ranked Student Emory Rhoten.

Our Eagle and Eaglette baseball and softball seasons came to an end with losses to Bullard. The Eaglettes fell 17-4 in Game 1, followed by a dramatic come-from-behind 7-6 win in Game 2, and then a 10-0 loss in Game 3 to conclude the season. The Eagles fell in two games to the Panthers 5-0 and 7-5.

Congratulations to Preston Yarber, who finished 8th in throwing the discus, Hannah Cade, who finished 5th in the 100m hurdles, and Jaxson Hubble, who finished 3rd in the seated shot put at the UIL State Track & Field Meet.

Good luck this week to our Eaglette golf team as they will compete at the UIL State Golf Tournament.

CANTON ISD SAFE RETURN TO IN PERSON INSTRUCTION & CONTINUING OF SERVICES PLAN

Canton ISD is continuing to monitor COVID-19 as a district and has developed a Safe Return to In-Person Instruction & Continuing of Service Plan.
The American Rescue Plan (ARP) signed into law in March 2021 by President Joe Biden included $122 billion in Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funds for school districts across the country. Canton ISD was awarded these funds.
The purpose of ESSER, in general, is to award subgrants to local educational agencies (LEAs) such as Canton ISD to address the impact that COVID-19 has had, and continues to have, on elementary and secondary schools.
