This year, nearly 80 students helped create the magic and welcomed over 300 guests across three spooky nights. 🎭!

In celebration of time-honored traditions, we proudly recognize Ms. Betty Wilson, the visionary behind our beloved Pittsboro Elementary Halloween Parade. 50 years ago, Ms. Wilson (mother of our very own Board of Education member, Jane Allen Wilson) brought our community together with a simple yet powerful idea: to ensure that every child had the opportunity to experience the joy of trick-or-treating.
No tricks, only treats at the Chatham County Sheriff's Office! Pittsboro Elementary students walked in their annual Halloween parade through the halls of CCSO.

Congratulations to our October Champions of Character award winner, Cami Shields from Chatham Early College. The character word of October is Responsibility! Cami's nominator said:
"Cami demonstrates responsibility in every aspect of her academic and personal life. She takes ownership of her learning by staying two steps ahead on her assignments, maintaining exceptional grades, and consistently going above and beyond teacher expectations.
Cami is impeccable with her words and actions. For example, she recently advised a classmate to prepare for an upcoming chemistry test—showing that she not only cares about her own success but also contributes to the success of her peers. She models responsibility by keeping herself organized, communicating effectively, and maintaining a positive presence in our school community.
Beyond the classroom, Cami shows responsibility to her community by volunteering regularly at PTA Thrift Store work nights. Her commitment to both her academic goals and her community service exemplifies what it means to be responsible."
