During Celebrating Literacy Week the Pasco County School District held a contest in which students designed bookmarks for the event. We had three winning designs created by Kaylee Hall, Hudsen Solberg, and Averie Bangit, and for each winner, 500 bookmarks were printed.

Each student received 50 bookmarks to keep and share. The remaining bookmarks were made available to all teachers and students at CCHS.

Congratulations to our Top 10% of the Class of 2026! Through grit, resilience, and an unrelenting drive to climb higher, you’ve led the pack and blazed your own trail. Like true Coyotes, you embraced the challenge, navigated every twist in the terrain, and emerged stronger with each step. This milestone marks not the end of the journey—but the proof that you’re ready for whatever adventure lies ahead. Keep exploring. Keep climbing. The horizon is yours. 🌄

Our Jazz Band and Orchestra performed at the district Turnaround Student Ceremony, helping celebrate students’ growth and success. Their outstanding musicianship and professionalism made the event even more special. We’re proud of the way they represented our school and arts program!

These incredible educators make things happen—supporting students, empowering teachers, and keeping our school moving forward.

For the safety of all students and families, parents/guardians are not permitted to pull into parking spaces to drop off students. The only exception is for students with documented special needs or temporary injuries who have received prior administrative permission. Even in those cases, families must still follow the established progression of the car loop as outlined in the school’s drop‑off procedures.

Please be reminded that driving in any direction other than what is indicated in the official car loop flyer and satellite map is not permitted and may result in a traffic citation. Please download the flyer below and take a look at the satellite map for car loop drop off instructions.

As shared previously, if arrival time is creating a situation where your child is not arriving to school on time, the only solutions are to leave home earlier to enter the car line sooner or utilize bus transportation if a bus is assigned to your child.

Thank you for your continued cooperation in keeping our campus safe and traffic flowing smoothly during morning arrival.
