Thank you to the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Department, a suspect has been charged relating to recent Snapchat posts threatening disruption to our school operations and/or student and staff harm at Cherokee High School. At this point, this threat has been effectively dealt with and school will operate as normally planned. Thank you for those who shared the posts with staff, for those who shared information, and for those who continually monitor social media for such threats.
This is a reminder for families to apply for free or reduced-price lunch benefits for the 2023-24 school year!
If you have a student who had free or reduced benefits last year, you must apply for benefits for this school year. This includes students who attended a CEP school last year but are enrolled in a non-CEP school this year. Applications are available online and at your student’s school office.
Any student who had free or reduced benefits last school year and has not yet applied for benefits this school year, will move to a paid status on 9/20/23. Any meal charges accrued because of the change in meal status will be the responsibility of the family.
If you have questions about your student’s meal status, please contact the Child Nutrition Office at 423-272-2128.
