When you work hard, you get to play hard! CHMS House Games were a great way to kick off the long weekend!
Congratulations to Mrs. Tupper’s homeroom for earning the highest homeroom attendance average in December and Mrs. McLain’s homeroom for taking the top spot in January!
To celebrate, both classes were treated to a Grammy Pammy Pancake Breakfast this morning and it was a sweet success!
Now the question is… which homeroom will be eating pancakes for the month of February?
Keep showing up, giving your best, and remember...attendance matters!
Ms. Amburgey's 7th and 8th grade music classes turned up the energy with our very own Winter Music Olympics! ❄️🎶
Students practiced identifying note values, form, and musical structure by competing in a series of fun, music-themed winter events. Fifteen teams — each representing a different country — battled it out in Ice Ball, Hockey, Figure Skating, Biathlon, and Curling to earn medals and show off their musical knowledge and teamwork!
After some exciting competition, our overall medal winners were:
🥇 Gold: Team Australia (7th Grade)
🥈 Silver: Team Italy (7th Grade) & Team Bahamas (8th Grade)
🥉 Bronze: Team Spain (8th Grade)
So proud of all our students for their enthusiasm, teamwork, and musical growth. Learning + competition = a winning combination! 🎼🏆

2/9 Track Update
Dear Parents and Guardians,
At Church Hill Middle School, student safety and well-being are always our top priorities. One important way we support a positive and secure campus is through consistent supervision during non-structured times of the day, such as lunch periods and bus arrival and dismissal.
These times, while valuable for social interaction, can sometimes be challenging for middle school students. Increased adult presence helps students feel safe and supported, encourages positive behavior, and reduces opportunities for conflict or poor decision-making. Just as importantly, it allows us to strengthen the partnership between families and school staff.
We are inviting parents and guardians to volunteer to assist with supervision during lunch and bus duty. Volunteers play a vital role by:
Helping students feel safe and seen
Supporting positive behavior and respectful interactions
Keeping students engaged and on track during unstructured time
Building stronger connections between families and school staff
Opportunities for volunteering will include the following times:
_____ 7:15 - 7:45 M T W TH F
_____ 2:45 - 3:30 M T W TH F
_____ 10:30 - 12:30 M T W TH F
No prior experience is required, and staff members will always be present to provide guidance and support. Even a small amount of time can make a meaningful difference for our students.
If you are interested in volunteering or would like more information, please contact the school office for an application. We truly appreciate your willingness to partner with us in creating a safe, supportive, and welcoming school environment for all students.
Thank you for your continued support of our school community.
