Conneaut High School will be hosting 8th Grade Transition to High School meetings on Tuesday, March 7 from 4:00-7:00pm. Current 8th grade students and their families may sign up for 30-minute appointment times where they will have the opportunity to meet with a Conneaut High School teacher and learn about everything CHS has to offer. Topics discussed will include: course scheduling, planning for your future, activities and athletics available at CHS, and a day in the life of a CHS student. This is a great opportunity to learn more about what to expect in high school, and to make connections with a teacher who will then be a familiar face in the fall of 2023.

Keith Schreiber and the Conneaut Dairy Queen have been donating meals to the students at Conneaut Middle School for many years. Students are selected at random or nominated by their teacher for doing something positive at school. The "lunch with the principal" is a great opportunity that many students will have this school year. Thank you Conneaut DQ for being an awesome partner for our student PBIS program.
