Honoring our veterans

Once again, Carrollton High School's Air Force Junior ROTC program honored veterans on Veterans Day in grand fashion by offering several programs during the day to accommodate all students in the school system. These photos were taken during Carrollton Middle School's scheduled time when the school's CMS Singers performed their own tribute. The CJHS Band continued the tradition of providing patriotic music, including the Armed Forces Medley played during the recognition of veterans who served in different branches of the military. See more photos on Facebook.

Together, words and voice communicate fully

The Carrollton High School Show Choir performed a patriotic piece written in 1976 by retired journalist and college professor Joe Cumming to celebrate the country's bicentennial. Tommy Cox, director of the CHS Performing Arts Department, said he thought Cummings' words resonated with the audience especially during this political season. The show choir provided entertainment for the social services support organization, Family Connections, at its annual legislative breakfast Nov. 3, and received a standing ovation following the performance!
