Class of 2027 families, senior year is approaching, and senior portraits are the first step in this important milestone.

The Corinth Holders High School Pirate Club is looking for individuals that have made significant contributions to Corinth Holders High School and beyond to be honored in the CHHS Athletics Hall of Fame. The Election Committee, as outlined by the CHHS Hall of Fame Bylaws, will select up to 8 inductees each year. A team or unit (e.g. tennis doubles, swimming relay team) shall count as 1 towards the number of annual inductees.
To be considered, a student-athlete or coach must be at least 5 years removed from CHHS. Student-athletes must have a diploma from CHHS. A Special Inductee is any individual who has made unique and extraordinary contributions to CHHS athletics but may not otherwise be eligible as a Student-Athlete or Coach inductee.
Inductees shall be required to attend the annual Corinth Holders High School Athletics Hall of Fame Induction event. If an inductee cannot commit to attending, their nomination will be re-entered into the pool of candidates for inclusion at a later date. Posthumous nominations are welcome. In the event of a posthumous induction, a member of the honoree’s family will represent them at the induction event.
It is acknowledged that this procedure does not cover every individual or circumstance and that the Election Committee must have a degree of flexibility in its consideration of truly outstanding and deserving nominees.
2026 Important Dates:
Nomination Form Deadline: February 1st-NOMINATION FORM
Compile/Committee Voting: March 1st
Deadline to Accept: April 1st
Induction Ceremony and Banquet: Saturday, June 6, 2026.
The Booster Club needs assistance with Hall of Fame planning and preparation. If you would like to volunteer, please choose any committee you would like. Monthly meetings occur up until the event. Notifications are sent out. Sign up HERE.
The Summer/Fall 2026 Application cycle for the Career and College Promise Dual enrollment program at Johnston Community College is officially open! It runs January 19th - April 27, 2026. Visit https://www.johnstoncc.edu/admissions-and-aid/dual-enrollment-student.html for more information.
Attention Parents of Seniors:
Happy New Year! As the Class of 2026 is rolling towards graduation, we only have 27% of our 569 seniors who have completed the FAFSA.
Please remember that if your student plans on attending any four year college or any community college, both the student and the parent need to complete the FAFSA.
If your student wants to take advantage of the free tuition at Johnston Community College through the Commissioner's Promise Program, they cannot get it unless the FAFSA is completed.
Even if you think you won't qualify for any Financial Aid, please remember that the Commissioner's Promise Program is not based on income, and many other scholarships require the FAFSA to be completed before scholarship monies are awarded.
Thus, it is beneficial for every senior who is planning on pursuing higher education to fill out the FAFSA. If you need help with the FAFSA, please contact your counselor or/and Mrs. Morrison and we will get you some help.
