Chassell Township Schools

💙💛🎼Five Chassell Township Schools band students had the honor of participating in Junior Honors Band at Northern Michigan University this past Saturday after being nominated for their outstanding musicianship. The day was filled with rehearsals led by exceptional directors, including Tim Oliver from the University of Mississippi. Students learned four new pieces that were showcased in a wonderful evening concert. They also enjoyed some sunshine and team-building fun with a mini duck/kazoo hunt! We are so proud of these students for representing Chassell so well! 💙💛🎵

Congratulations to Chassell's 2026 Copper Country Association of School Boards (CCASB) Award Winners! While we're grateful for the teamwork and contributions of our whole team of staff and students, these folks received special recognition at last night's CCASB Awards Banquet at MTU. Chassell's winners in their respective categories were nominated by our very own staff. 💙 Diana Torola - Student Impact Award 💛 Diana has made a powerful and lasting impact on our school through her kindness, leadership, and behind-the-scenes service, leaving a legacy of positivity as she graduates as Valedictorian. 💛 Grady Olson - CCISD CTE Student Leadership Award 💙 Grady's skill, reliability, and selflessness geared toward being a leader in CTE and CTE Work-Based Learning in various projects, including local house builds, make him an outstanding role model for others. His contributions positively impact the growth of CTE for our students. 💛 Ms. Sydney Harmon - Outstanding Education Employee Award 💙 Ms. Harmon's compassion, expertise, and unwavering dedication to supporting all students make her an invaluable educator whose impact is felt across our school. 💙 Mr. Norm Thomas - School Service Award 💛 Mr. Thomas goes above and beyond every day to keep our school safe, welcoming, and running smoothly, truly embodying the spirit of service and making a difference for everyone.

🎵 Wishing all the best to these hardworking Panthers as they gear up to participate in the Junior Honors Band event held at NMU tomorrow in Marquette! 🎶 💙💛

Our 6th Grade Farm & Food class got hands-on this week learning all about the benefits of fresh salads! Then they put their knowledge to the test by creating their very own!

From crunchy veggies to colorful toppings, students explored how salads can be both nutritious and delicious. They practiced making healthy choices, learned about different ingredients, and had a blast building their own custom creations.

We’re growing more than just food—we’re growing lifelong healthy habits here at CTS! 💚🥬

💙 Staff Spotlight: Ms. Sydney Harmon 💙

We’re so lucky to have Ms. Harmon as part of our Chassell family! From her love of the outdoors to her positive outlook and dedication to her students, she brings such an incredible energy to our school.

💙 Attention CTS Alumni! 💛

There will be a Chassell All-Class Reunion planning meeting tomorrow night, March 31st at 6:30 PM at the Chassell VFW.

We’ll be kicking off plans for the All-School Reunion (Sunday afternoon of this summer’s Strawberry Festival weekend at the park/pavilion). The committee is also looking for new, younger members as several current members are retiring, along with updated class contacts and donations to help make the reunion happen.

This event only comes around every 3–5 years. Come help us make it a great one!

If you can’t attend in person, a virtual link will be posted in the comments closer to meeting time. 🙂
