CHS students will be allowed to check out with a parent/guardian note only. A parent/guardian phone number will need to be included on the checkout note for verification purposes.
***No phone call checkouts will be allowed because of safety concerns.
CHS is a closed campus and we strongly discourage students from checking out at lunch. This typically causes unnecessary tardies and classroom interruptions. If a student is checking out at lunch, a parent/guardian must physically come in and sign the student out and them back in from lunch.
Only a parent/guardian is allowed to drop lunch off for a student. If a parent/guardian is dropping off lunch for a student, there will be a table (outside the office) with a sharpie for the students name to be written on it. Students should know in advance that lunch is being dropped off to them.
Musical Auditions

Arkansas Fallen Heroes Memorial at CHS
We have a unique opportunity at CHS this week. We will host a traveling memorial for Arkansas Fallen Heroes. The memorial will be set up on the morning of Nov.16th and will be displayed through the 26th. It will be in the grassy area just outside the math and science wing of the main building.
The following links provide information on the memorial.
These are the former Cabot High School students that are included in the memorial:
SGT Ronald Baker
SSGT James Cook
1LT Tom Martin
CPL Curtis Obal
SPC Phillip Sayles
SGT Brandon M. Smith
SGT Jason Swindle
MSGT Daniel R. Wassom II
Also, SSG Alan Shaw and SSG William T. Robbins are both from Central Arkansas and have step daughters that are current students at Cabot High School. Cpl. Loren Buffalo had a brother at Junior High North when he was killed in 2011 (just two weeks prior to his return home from a combat deployment).
A special thank you to Angela and Bubba Beason and the work that they do to ensure that the names of our fallen soldiers never cease to be spoken. As was stated on the info site... a soldier dies twice. Once when they stop breathing and again when their name ceases to be spoken.
We are not here to honor what happened to these Fallen Heroes, but to honor who they were, what they were doing, and what they had become and to thank them by forever remembering them for paying the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms and rights that we have today. - Rob Hopper
Take time to check out the memorial and speak the names of the fallen in honor of their ultimate sacrifice.
Be sure to check out the memorial at night, it will be stunning as the flags are illuminated each night.
