Keys to Success educates students on the importance of saying “no” to drugs through rewards and education. Read more from the Chillicothe Gazette.

During the summer, we are again providing free lunches for any students 18 or younger from June 6-July 29. In addition to two vans, Babe the Blue Bus will be delivering lunches to a variety of locations each day. The lunch menu will be posted on Nutrislice under the Chillicothe HS/MS menu during the summer, and each student can get one free lunch per day. Check our social media for July’s schedule, and reach out to Mary Montgomery at mary.montgomery@ccsd.us with any questions. If you have any other needs throughout the summer, feel free to reach out to Summer School Admin Josh Tripp at joshua.tripp@ccsd.us.
