The Chambers County<\/span> School District recently completed competition for the Amazing Shake Jr. for its fourth and fifth grade students.  The district has reshaped the competition for the <\/span>Amazing Shake <\/span>for the 2024-25 school year.  The Amazing Shake Jr. competition will be the first of three levels carried out this year with additional competitions to be held for both middle school and high school students. <\/span>The Amazing Shake Jr. contest was a county wide competition for elementary school girls and boys to participate in.<\/span><\/p>\n

The purpose of this competition was to help younger students<\/span> begin their first Amazing Shake Jr. contest.<\/span> The <\/span>first round of <\/span>competition started with all 24 students interviewing with community members. Ten students moved on to Round 2, where they had to create and pitch a business plan to <\/span>judges from <\/span>the Chambers County Development Authority. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>third and <\/span>final<\/span> round saw<\/span> five students <\/span>that <\/span>were interviewed by Assistant Superintendent, David Owen, as well as the Director of K-8 education, Dr. Sheila Jones. The winners, listed below, will be honored at the <\/span>board meeting on <\/span>October 29<\/span>th<\/span> <\/span>for the Chambers County School District <\/span>board. <\/span>The <\/span>CCSD would like to extend a <\/span>special <\/span>thank you to Steve Wheeler with Alfa Insurance, the Chambers County Development Authority, and the many judges who volunteer<\/span>ed<\/span> their time to give our students this opportunity.<\/span><\/p>\n
