District Announcement:
The 1st Annual Hawkins County Nurse's Bowl is officially in the books!
We are so proud of the students from both Volunteer High School and Cherokee High School who competed. These future healthcare professionals showcased incredible poise, skills, and mastery of content through hands-on skills challenges, a terminology exam, and a competitive quiz bowl!
The best part of the day? Seeing the amazing camaraderie between the students. Instead of just competing, students from both schools meshed together beautifully, supporting one another and learning together throughout the event.
Congratulations to the Volunteer High School student participants and Mrs. Keri Helton for taking home the win at our inaugural event! To our phenomenal instructors—Eric, Angel, and Keri—thank you! It is so evident that you are pouring your passion for the nursing craft into our students. Thank you for everything you do to prepare them for the future and for your dedication to our Hawkins County community.

Cherokee High School Culinary Instructor Kyra Jenkins and our amazing culinary students just took 1ST PLACE at the Tennessee Junior Chef Competition!
Beating out eight teams from across the state, our students had just 90 minutes to prep a delicious meal using local ingredients that met strict National School Lunch guidelines. Their incredible skills and hard work earned them the state title, the traveling trophy, and a massive $48,000 in scholarships!
It’s an exciting day to be a Cherokee Chef! GO CHIEFS!
