PREVIOUS ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR STUDENTS

Adopt-a-Family Christmas Project

For nearly 40 years, Charlotte Catholic has partnered with Catholic Charities to support families in need at Christmas. This year, each homeroom is sponsoring a child (or in some cases, two children or a parent).

Because of the short timeline, we encourage families to donate Visa gift cards, which allow parents to purchase gifts directly. If you prefer, you may also donate through the online store's Adopt a Family Donations page. All donations are due by Friday, December 12. Thank you for helping us bring joy to families this Christmas season!

Suicide Prevention Resources

Thank you to Nikki Warren '91, St. Gabriel’s teacher, CCHS alumna, and former CCHS parent, for sharing her family’s story and helping raise awareness for suicide prevention with our Freshmen Health students on Wednesday. Nikki will return in the spring to speak with Freshmen enrolled in Health next semester.

We encourage families to visit the CCHS Counseling Webpage for suicide prevention resources. If you or someone you know is experiencing suicidal thoughts or feelings of self-harm, do not hesitate to reach out.
