Other things I do outside of the FFA are Stuco as the current Reporter, FCA in which I was the 24-25 Vice President, NHS as Reporter, Academic Team, NHD, and Choir. 📸
•
The most valuable FFA experience for me was definitely Alumni Camp. 2024 was my first year ever attending, and ever since i’ve been passionate in the FFA like no other. Alumni Camp taught me the true importance in team work and how important it is to bond with your team to able to accomplish goals. If there’s one FFA event a FFA member should have to go to, i’ll always say Alumni Camp! ☀️
•
My plans after high school is to run in State FFA office, and attend OSU for pre-veterinary medicine or Ag Com. 🤠
•
The thing I look forward to the most is the challenges we’ll face this year as a team, and how we’ll cooperate during the good and hard times. My goal is to build our team up with unconditional support and love, but also discipline. 🫂

As famous country artist Cody Johnson quotes in his song “Til You Can’t”, “If you got a chance- take it. Take it while you’ve got the chance.” I encourage every younger FFA member to just leap right in! Take all the opportunities you can that are handed to you and work hard in it. Don’t be afraid, you’ll love it on the Blue and Gold side. ⚡️
Thank you guys for reading through, I cannot wait to serve another year in this amazing chapter! 🫶🏻

🌟 **Introducing Our New Social Worker!** 🌟
We are excited to announce that Mrs. Suzanne McVicker has transitioned into the role of our new Social Worker! Many of you may already know her from her various roles in our school, where she made a significant impact on our students and community.
With a deep commitment to supporting the emotional and social well-being of our students, Mrs. McVicker brings wealth of knowledge and is passionate about creating a safe and nurturing environment where every student feels valued and heard. She is a 2005 graduate from Southwestern State University where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Social Work. (BSW) It has always been a dream of hers to work as a social worker and a coach. "I feel the stars aligned perfectly and it to be a huge blessing for me to have acquired this position in this district. I have worked at Canton Public Schools for 11 years. Before employment with the school I worked for child welfare for 10 years. I have a passion for children and helping families," expressed Mrs. McVicker.
In her new role, Mrs. McVicker hopes to connect students and their families to local and state resources that can offer help and hope for the family. Within the school, she plans to expand the sharing shelf, provide assistance for clothing items needed by students, assist with connecting families to the food pantry, help with the backpack program, serve as liaison between the school and OKDHS, monitor and observe at-risk students - contact parents, and play an active role in the Capturing The Kids Heart program we have at our school. She will be a support to help students navigate out-of-classroom obstacles that affect their success in the classroom. From working closely with families to collaborating with teachers and staff, Mrs. McVicker hopes to create a safe, nurturing environment where every student feels seen, heard, and supported.
Please join us in welcoming Mrs. Suzanne McVicker to this new position! We look forward to the positive impact she will have on our students and families.
As we are about to kick off the 2025-2026 school year, we wanted to take a moment to showcase our Superintendent and Board of Education! Their commitment to excellence in education and community engagement sets the stage for a successful year ahead.
👨🏫 **Our Superintendent:**
Mr. Sean Weibling is returning to Canton for his second year and has a continued passion for fostering a nurturing and innovative learning environment alongside our students, teachers, and families to achieve great things.
🗳️ **Introducing Our Board of Education:** Our Board members are dedicated leaders who advocate for our students and community. We would like to welcome our two new board members, Mr. Charlie Acre and Mrs. Heather Smith, along with our returning board members, Mr. James Schoonmaker, Mr. Shannon Sinclair, and Mr. Greg Heath.
We believe that collaboration and communication are key to our success, and we encourage all families to stay engaged this year. Let’s work together to make this school year the best one yet!
🌍 **Here’s to a fantastic year of learning and growth!** 🎉
‼️MEET THE 25-26 CANTON FFA OFFICER TEAM‼️ These next few weeks we’ll be introducing the new officers with some fun questions.

First up, who is stationed by the rising sun?☀️
•
Hello, my name is Hannah Hoffman and I’m your 25-26 President! My role is to lead our FFA and represent our chapter. This year I’ll be a junior, and currently my favorite song is Boys Don’t Cry by The Cure.🔹
•
Outside of the FFA I also am a member on the Academic Team, Art, History Day, and serving as the current Vice President in National Honors society. 🎯

I think the most valuable FFA experience is stepping out of your comfort zone, and being encouraged to try new things.🏆
•
My plans after high school are going to college with an interest of either journalism or biology.✍🏻
•
This year, what I am looking forward to is, completing in more contests! 🌱

Some advice I would give to younger FFA members is to get out there and try new things! It might change your perspective on things.💛

Come and support our JH cheerleaders! 📣
🛑OSSAA Summertime Dead
Period🛑
June 28-July 6, 2025
Just a reminder of the upcoming OSSAA Summertime Dead Period which will be from Saturday, June 28-Sunday, July 6, 2025.
During the "Dead Period", students and coaches at member schools may not use any athletic facilities/fields for activities governed by the OSSAA. Member school coaches, assistant coaches, and sponsors may not have any contact with secondary level enrolled or pre-enrolled students in that member school in any athletic activity governed by the OSSAA for the purpose of coaching, training or instruction.
During this time, ALL athletic facilities at Canton Public Schools will be closed.
Attention Girls Junior High Basketball Players and Parents: The girls leave tomorrow at 8am for the Junior High team camp at Morrison. Coach Davis has tried to send messages through our Thrillshare app. Right now only two JH girls have been responding. Please make sure you download the Canton Public Schools app so you can receive these important messages. You can check the image attached to this post. If you go to App Store and type Canton Public Schools you should see the correct app circled in the image. That's a screenshot from my own phone so I know it works on an Apple device.
Correction: There will be no Summer Pride tomorrow since it is Monday. Highschool boys' basketball will still meet at the gym between 10:30-10:45.
Reminder: HS Boys Basketball, PCH team camp starts tomorrow, first game is @ 2:00, so the bus will be leaving @ 11:30! Please be at the school by 10:30-10:45 to get jerseys passed out, if you do not attend summer pride.
Concurrent students need to get their enrollment forms to Mrs. Heath ASAP.
The CHS cheerleaders had a great day at K101 last Saturday. They learned a halftime routine, marched in the parade and cheered Nick Sullins and the East team on at the football game.
