Do you have one hour per month to help students in your community transition from high school to college? tnAchieves, local partnering organization to Gov. Haslam’s TN Promise, needs 9,000 mentors to work with high school students from the Class of 2017. Mentors remind students of important deadlines, serve as a trusted college resource and, most importantly, encourage students to reach their full potential. The time commitment is small, but the impact can be life changing for a first generation college student trying to navigate the college going process. Learn more or register at https://tnachieves.org/mentors/requirements/. For the class of 2017, Cannon County needs 22 mentors; currently only 6 adults have registered to be mentors for these seniors. Our students need you; please consider being a mentor and register today.
On Saturday, Oct. 1st, the Adams Memorial Library celebrated 50 years of service to the citizens of Cannon County. Many thanks to the following CCHS football players who helped with the event set up and clean up: Cort Litchford, Dalton Morris, Kyle Martinez, Tristan Wareham, Brent Scott, and Reece Smith. Also, thanks to the Lioness members Rachel Hale and Tori Duncan for serving as hostesses at the reception.
