Canton Independent School District Home

Congratulations to our Student of the Week, 1st grader Henley Coursey. Henley is the daughter of Travis and Shelby Coursey. Henley has attended Canton ISD since kindergarten and when she graduates she wants to become an artist because she likes to paint, color, and draw. Her favorite color is pink and her favorite thing to draw is hearts. Her hobbies include swinging, sliding, and swimming and she does ballet and Tap Ballet Combo. She also enjoys going out to eat with her family. 

Her favorite subject is science because she gets to learn things that she doesn't already know. She also enjoys doing experiments. Something interesting about Henley that people may not know is that she can be fun to play with even though she is a little bit shy and she has a dog named Woody and a cat named Snowflake. 

Mrs. Kelly Lamar, Canton Elementary principal, says that “Henley works hard in her classroom and chooses to model leadership every day!” Her teacher Ms. Burton says, “she is a strong student who always does the right thing” “Henley has many friends and enjoys school, friends, and family. We are so proud she is a CES Eagle. All of her teachers present and past know she will do great things. It is a joy to watch her grow from year to year!” Congratulations Henley.

Congratulations to the Eagles who completed a clean sweep this past week with wins over Quinlan Ford, Bullard, and Mineola over the Thanksgiving break. 

The Eagles will take on Community at home on Tuesday and will conclude the week with home games against Krum on Friday night and travel to Kaufman on Saturday. 

The Eaglettes defeated Paris while falling to Lindale and Chapel Hill this past week. The Eaglettes will host Corsicana on Friday and Malakoff on Saturday. The Tuesday game against Grapeland has been canceled. We will keep the community updated on a pick up game.

The junior high teams will face Athens on Monday night, with the girls hosting the Lady Hornets, while the boys will travel to Athens. Best of luck to all of our teams. 

The FFA will host their annual Blue Jackets, Gold Standards Dinner/Auction on Thursday night starting at 5:30. This is a fantastic opportunity to come out and support our FFA members. They will have a tremendous amount of projects to bid on!

Go Eagles & Eaglettes!
