The following Points of Pride were awarded during the School Board formal meeting in September 2024.
TSSAA Girls Wrestling Coach of the Year
Each year, TSSAA selects top coaches from across the state who develop character and teach strategies for skill development and strategic thinking. There are approximately 6,000 coaches in TSSAA with over 100,000 student-athletes. Coach Doug Badon from Clarksville High was selected as the 2023-2024 TSSAA Girls Wrestling Coach of the Year. Congratulations, Coach Badon, and thank you for everything you do for the Lady Wildcats!
Perfect ACT Score
Cade Deterding from Rossview High School was named a 2025 National Merit Scholarship semifinalist. Last semester, Cade was also awarded for earning a perfect ACT score of 36. (He was one of only 0.3% of students across the nation to achieve this perfect ACT score.) This year, over 1.3 million juniors entered the program, and Cade was one of the only 1% of students selected as a semifinalist. We are all cheering for you, Cade, and look forward to your finalist announcement in the coming months.

National Football League (NFL) Latino Excellence in Youth Football Award
Leilyn Mercado from West Creek High School was selected as the Tennessee Titans representative for the NFL’s Latino Excellence in Youth Football award. She is a senior at West Creek High who plays forward for the girls’ soccer team and linebacker/defensive back for flag football team. Leilyn is one of only 32 female student-athletes in the entire country to be chosen for this award for making an impact on the playing field and in the classroom by achieving a high-level of academic success. Congratulations, Leilyn, on this outstanding achievement!
The following Point of Pride awards were presented by the School Board on Tuesday, October 22, 2024.
Northwest High School’s Katherine Kim and Rossview High School’s Carson Carroll, Jason Moon, and Cale Weber competed against hundreds of students across the state of Tennessee in the 2024 State Math Competition. We are so excited to share that out of all the students who competed, Katherine from Northwest and Carson from Rossview tied for 2nd place in the state in Algebra II. From Rossview, Jason won 5th place in Geometry and Cale won 7th place in Algebra II. This marks the most winners CMCSS has had since 2018.
Janiya Johnson from Kirkwood High School is the national champion in the 16U 155 at the 2024 FloWrestling Who’s Number One National Championships. She is the first female from Tennessee and only the second wrestler from Tennessee to ever accomplish this milestone. This national championship invites only the top wrestlers from each weight class in the nation to compete at the event, and she was one of the youngest wrestlers there. In a recent ClarksvilleNow article, Janiya’s mother, Mrs. Johnson said, “Wow, what a year for Janiya. From Women’s Nationals runner-up, to undefeated at National Duals, to Fargo National Champion. She has taken on the best wrestlers in the country and shown them this Tennessee girl is the real deal. She is only getting started!”
Spanish Immersion Elementary School at Barksdale has been recognized as a 2024 National Blue Ribbon School. The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program recognizes schools based on their overall academic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups. Every year, the U.S. Department of Education seeks out and celebrates great American schools, schools demonstrating that all students can achieve to high levels. For context, out of approximately 1,700 public schools in the state of Tennessee, this year only 6 schools received this honor. Nationally, 316 public schools out of approximately 90,000 public schools were recognized, which is approximately 0.35 % of schools both statewide and nationally. The coveted National Blue Ribbon School award affirms the hard work of students, educators, families, and communities in creating safe and welcoming schools where students master challenging and engaging content. Spanish Immersion Elementary School at Barksdale is CMCSS’ second school in two years to be awarded, with Middle College at APSU being named a 2023 National Blue Ribbon School. Congratulations to the amazing faculty and staff, and the wonderful students and families at Spanish Immersion Elementary School at Barksdale for this accomplishment!
