It is with deep sadness that we share with our students, staff, and community that Chuck Atkins passed away today. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Chuck’s family, friends, and all who knew and cared about him during this incredibly difficult time.
Chuck was a valued and influential member of our staff who made a lasting impact on our school community. He built meaningful and lasting relationships with students both in the classroom and on the athletic field. His dedication, kindness, and commitment to students will not be forgotten.
Today is a very difficult day for Chief Nation. We encourage everyone to keep Chuck’s family and loved ones in their thoughts as we mourn this loss together.
