April School Board Recognition 2024

Cabot Country Cruisers

WOW! The Cabot Country Cruisers delivered a wonderful gift to the Cabot School District tonight! At the Cabot School Board meeting, they presented the district with a $13,000, their largest donation to date!

Five-thousand-dollars will be used to purchase equipment and curriculum for our physical education programs, $2,000 will be awarded to two CHS track seniors for scholarships, and $6,000 will go to Cabot Family Track Nights!

We are grateful for our partnership with this amazing running group. The Cruisers were able to raise this money through their "Spring Fling 5K" that they host every year!
