CHS Welding is hosting a Toys for Tots Toy Drive to help bring holiday joy to local families.
Mr. Ritchie will be accepting new, unwrapped toys until November 20th.

Cleveland High School Career and Technical Education students had the opportunity to take learning beyond the classroom during NASA CTE Day at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, on September 16.
Twenty-five students from the Engineering & Robotics and Welding programs participated in the experience, exploring how skills learned in their CTE classrooms connect to careers in aerospace, engineering, advanced manufacturing, technology, and the skilled trades.
The trip built upon student interest generated last spring when former NASA scientist and engineer David Jerrell, who spent more than 24 years at Kennedy Space Center, visited CHS and spoke with students about NASA, commercial space exploration, and careers within the growing aerospace industry.
The experience allowed students to connect classroom skillsโincluding engineering design, robotics, welding, fabrication, and problem-solvingโto real-world aerospace careers. A highlight of the visit was a behind-the-scenes look at the engineering and construction of components for NASAโs next Artemis mission. Students were able to see firsthand the precision, technology, and teamwork involved in preparing flight hardware before components are ultimately sent to Kennedy Space Center in preparation for launch.
Tim Austin serves as Assistant Manager in the Logistics Management Office at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center
Melissa Costa: Propulsion and Fluids Test Engineer, and Tom Vaughn: Aerospace Materials Engineer, shared their career experiences and answered student questions about education, training, career pathways, and opportunities within the aerospace industry. Since not all three started in Aerospace. When asked, students said the highlight of the day was when they showed the evidence of 3D printing with moon dust and the neat but abstract process of welding they use.
The experience allowed students to connect classroom skillsโincluding engineering design, robotics, welding, fabrication, problem-solving, teamwork, and technical skillsโto real-world careers.

Cleveland High School students achieved impressive top-tier finishes at the annual Lee University Constitution Bowl Competition on Friday, September 18. ๐
Demonstrating exceptional knowledge of American history and civic principles, CHS teams secured 3rd and 7th place overall in a highly competitive regional field.๐
The Constitution Bowl celebrates Constitution Day by fostering a deeper knowledge of and appreciation for the U.S. Constitution and the events surrounding its creation. High school teams compete head-to-head, answering rigorous trivia questions pertaining to the Constitution and other foundational documents. The event offers a dynamic way for students to learn about constitutional text while engaging in a larger discussion about founding principles and the proper role of government.
Eight students represented Cleveland High School across two teams, both of which went completely undefeated through Rounds 1 and 2, earning maximum points toward the Championship Game:
Team 2 (3rd Place Overall): Annabelle Alcock, Shaden Zboun, Penelope Jones, and Neel Patel. In the opening rounds, Team 2 defeated Homeschool, Ooltewah, and McCallie teams.
Team 1 (7th Place Overall): Lila Dunn, Millie Freeman, Ely West, and Harrison Carver. In the opening rounds, Team 1 defeated Notre Dame, Baylor, and GPS.
By the conclusion of the tournament, the CHS teams successfully outperformed several formidable regional opponents, including McCallie, GPS, Baylor, Notre Dame, Ooltewah, Walker Valley, Bradley, and Homeschool teams.
The CHS Constitution Bowl teams are sponsored and coached by CHS Social Studies teachers Josiah Vacheresse and Julie Phillips.
