Event Planning

Ms. Orr’s Event Planning class showed their appreciation for the teachers and staff at Cullman High School by organizing and hosting a Teacher Appreciation Breakfast Cart! Over the past few weeks, students worked together to plan the menu, create a budget, decorate, prepare food, assign roles, and map out routes throughout the school. On Friday morning, students traveled around campus delivering breakfast goodies and drinks to faculty and staff. This event gave students the opportunity to put their event planning skills into action while giving back to those who do so much for our school! A special thank you to Karma’s Coffee House for donating a gift card for our teacher giveaway, and congratulations to our lucky winner, Mrs. Allison Bates

Good Samaritans

Cullman High School is proud to recognize Weston Keel and Morgan Fuller as both Good Samaritans who stepped up to help someone in need. Their willingness to help others reminds us that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. Thank you for representing CHS with good character, citizenship, and scholarship!! Go Bearcats!

Health Class

Our CHS Health Science students recently practiced their CPR skills on infant mannequins, learning valuable lifesaving techniques. These hands-on experiences help prepare our students with the knowledge and confidence to respond in an emergency. We are proud of our students for developing skills that can make a difference and even save a life!

The free festival took over Urban Supply in the Parkside district on Saturday, October 17th, from noon to 8 p.m. Organizers paid 44 artists to cover the outside of the building with 35 colorful murals. Jill's work is now part of it. Congratulations, Jill. Cullman is proud of you.
