You’ve Been Egged!
Calhoun FCA stuffed eggs
Thursday after school and talked about the resurrection. FCA Minks went home with eggs and a plan to share the message of Easter with our community. Calhoun FCA is #ALLIN for our community, school, and students.







We caught our Director of Schools Melasawn Knight showing some love to a real mink today. We know who her favorites are! 😉 We are so glad that she's all in for Calhoun and McMinn County Schools!

Attention 8th graders: Here is a great opportunity for you to participate in this summer as you are transitioning to Cherokees in the fall! Contact Ms. Wood at MCHS for more information. awood@mcminnschools.com
