Athletics and Extra Curricular Activities
We are certain that Calhoun High School competed in boys basketball. It is quite possible that baseball and track
were part of the athletic program as well. Currently we do not have any team records or coach's names to share with
you on this page.
We are also certain that, like many small schools, the folks of Calhoun valued a good, well-rounded education for their
children..We are confident that band, chorus, and several club activites were offered to the children who attended Calhoun
High. If you have any of this information to share with us, please follow the directions below.
MEMORIES
From Harold Lame:
"I read your entry on Calhoun High School wondering if the school closed at consolidation time in about 1948. Grades
1-8 were there in1953 when I was in the 6th grade. Mr. Earl Holtz was the 5-6th grade teacher."
We Need Your Assistance...
