Crisp County High School

Exciting News from Aashi Patel! For the past two years, Aashi has been an inspiring leader in the Youth Lead of Georgia program, standing out among 40 incredible students! We’re thrilled to share that Aashi’s community project proposal was selected for funding! Teaming up with Girl Scout Troop 40351, led by the amazing Mrs. Candace Morey-Davis, Aashi is making waves at the Cordele Barbecue Bash hosted by the Lions Club. Join us in supporting their initiative to raise mental health awareness for youth. It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn, connect, and make a difference! You’ll not only see Aashi and the Girl Scouts in action, but also some of our phenomenal Beta Club members, all under the guidance of one of CCHS’s most dedicated counselors, Mrs. Grinell. Let’s rally together for a great cause and show our support! #MentalHealthAwareness #YouthLeadGA #CommunityImpact #AashiPatel #GirlScouts #BetaClub #CCHS Image & Content Credit: Mrs. Jessica Young, Beta Sponsor

Community Appreciation Post! A HUGE thank you to Mrs. Angie Wilkerson, Alpha Delta Kappa Sorority and Morning Side Baptist Church for their generous contributions to the Crisp County High School Beta Club Crocheting Project! This student-led initiative takes place during our Extended Learning Time each day, where students are learning to crochet baby blankets to donate to the hospital's NICU. Their hard work and dedication will bring warmth and comfort to newborns in need! We are so grateful for the support that makes this project possible! #BetaClub #CrochetingForACause #NICUDonations #CommunitySupport #StudentsMakingADifference Image & Content Credit: Mrs. Jessica Young, Beta Sponsor

We present to you our 2025 Crisp County High School Senior Superlatives! Congratulations to them!

It is National School Counseling Week, so we want to spotlight our two WONDERFUL school counselors, Ms. Michelle Grinnell and Ms. Dametra Patterson. These two professionals work tirelessly to ensure the success of our students. We are grateful for them and their dedication to our students, faculty and staff.

Last week, we lost one of our beloved teachers, Ms. Claire Austin Whiddon. Our students, faculty, and staff were given the opportunity to reflect on her impact on Crisp County High School. We created this brief video to show how special she was to everyone who knew her. We want to extend the deepest condolences to her family. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hZwq0TnDftFwiFapYJNiPNuXBrRo2T1Z/view?usp=sharing

CCSS has been in communication with our EMA Director about the safety of our roadways. As stated yesterday, we will be open for school tomorrow, Friday, January 24th. Please drive carefully.

Based on the current conditions, it’s not likely that Tuesday’s historic snowfall will melt away before temperatures drop again tonight, which could lead to unsafe road conditions for our buses and others Thursday morning. With safety in mind and out of an abundance of caution, CCSS will remain closed Thursday, January 23rd with plans to reopen Friday, January 24th.

Due to the anticipated impact from the winter storm in our area, Crisp County Schools will be closed on Tuesday, January 21st and Wednesday, January 22nd. This closure includes Crisp County Early Learning Academy. Please be safe and we hope to see everyone back at school on Thursday, January 23rd. As always, please stay abreast of the most updated information on the Crisp County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page.
