Chillicothe City Schools -

Welcome Back!

We are so thrilled to welcome back our 1st - 12th grade students tomorrow! We are going to have such a fulfilling and exciting year full of learning, fun, and engaging experiences!

Our turf is looking fresh for the 2024 Fall Sports season! Over the summer, we had our stadium turf completely redone, and we are thrilled with the results! We are especially thankful for the Touchdown Club’s donation of $500K towards the turf! 🤩

We would like to thank Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender, Elvis Merzlikins! Elvis has sponsored several of our 8th grade students, so that they are able to go on our annual Washington D.C. trip. We are so thankful for his contributions in helping our students and community. Good luck this season, and Go Jackets!

Happy 4th of July from CCSD! We hope everyone has a fun and safe day!

Here is the 24/25 calendar!

At last night's board meeting we honored our retirees. We thank all of you for your years of dedication to the district, and wish you a happy retirement!

So much fun at the Pioneer School Football Camp! 🏈

The Chillicothe High School Class of 1954 had a beautiful bench dedication on June 1st, 2024. The Class of 1954 came together to fund the installation of the bench outside of Chillicothe Intermediate School. It was so nice to see members of this class convene, share memories, and celebrate this together. We are both honored and humbled that Chillicothe High School has left such a lasting impact on its students. This is what being a Cavalier is all about. 💙

School is *ALMOST* out for the year! Today is the final day for Kindergarten - 6th grade, and they will be released at their regular time. Tomorrow, May 22nd, is the last day for our 7th - 12th graders. These students will be released from school at 1:30pm on Wednesday. So close to summer!

Graduation was really something special! It is bittersweet to say farewell to the class of 2024. We are so excited to see all the amazing things this group of students will achieve as they move forward, but we will miss their presence throughout the halls of CHS. Class of 2025, you’re next! 💙🎓 (📸courtesy of Roger Blum)
