From the desk of Dr. Cathy Beck, - Director of CC Schools
DEAR STUDENTS! How appropriate that my last edition of this amazing newspaper has the theme, “Get Moving,” as I will certainly be moving on towards retirement. I have been in my position, Director of Schools, for the past 8 years. I have so enjoyed being here and getting to work with you and your schools. We have accomplished many things together. Here are some that I am most proud of: 1. Getting a “Best for All” designation by the Tennessee Department of Education for how we budgeted the ESSR money given to districts during COVID. More than
GET MOVING! Plus puzzles, activities & much more! WHO IS AO SMITH? 2 Enamel or glass...

85% of the money that we were given went directly to instructional programming to improve academics in our district. 2. Our district is nationally accredited again! It has been many years since this was in place but what this says is that a Cheatham County School District education is a strong one and that there are opportunities to succeed in any path that you, as a student, so choose. 3. We became the first district in the state to be designated a
“Unified Champion School District.” This means that we are committed to the inclusion and value of every student in our schools. You have amazing teachers and staff that care about you and wish you nothing but the best in your educational career. Thank you for the respect and manners you show the adults in your buildings each day. This does not go unnoticed! As our theme for the year states, “Dream Big!” Now it
is time for me to Get Moving!
