Cherokee Families,
Boy is time flying or what?
We are already a week into the second quarter of the school year and we are off to an amazing start.
I am so blessed to be a part of such a great community! We have 800+ of the best students in the state here at Cherokee.
Athletically we have completed the girls basketball season with an 8th grade championship and a 7th grade runner-up city finish. Both 7th and 8th grade football had successful seasons as well this year (both finishing 2nd in City).
Academically our staff is doing their best to prepare our students for their future - whether it be college or career ready. Communication, Collaboration, and Critical Thinking are three vital pieces to the puzzle and I see this in action each and every day I am visiting classrooms.
Please know we are here to help in any way we can and please do not hesitate to contact me via email at wtpowers@spsmail.org, Twitter @MrPowersCMS, or phone 523-7210.
Thank you all very much and as always GO INDIANS!!
Bill

Open House and Book Fair
Cherokee Families,
We are off to an incredible start and I want to personally thank each of you for your part.
We at Cherokee know our students come to us well prepared to learn and grow as young people. It makes our job as educators so much easier. Not that it is ever easy to work with 25 - 30 pre-teens and teenagers :-).
This week we look forward to visiting with you and sharing what is happening here at Cherokee.
Our Open House is scheduled for Thursday evening from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. We do expect parking to be at a premium so we are providing a FREE SHUTTLE service from the Community Blood Center to Cherokee. The shuttle will run every 15 to 20 minutes beginning at 5:45 and ending at 8:15. Please use this service.
Also, our annual Book Fair is this week. All proceeds go toward replenishing and adding to our library collections. The hours are 7:30 to 3:15 each day and until 8 p.m. on Thursday night during Open House. You can also make purchases online via the link on our website or Buy Books here.
As always please contact me if you have any questions or concerns in the following ways:
Phone - 523-7210

Working together to educate our future,
