CAHOKIA — Cahokia Unit School District #187 Superintendent Curtis McCall Jr. announced Wednesday, Oct. 8, 2025, the cancellation of all tailgating activities on school property until further notice, citing concerns for student safety and compliance with state law. The decision follows a letter from Sam Knox, assistant executive director of the Illinois High School Association, who raised concerns about alcohol consumption during tailgating events on district grounds. Knox referenced communications from Nicole Johnson, who had previously spoken with district officials and the school board regarding the issue and shared photographic evidence. “I've been a high school A.D., so I understand these challenges, but the fact is that alcohol (along with tobacco and drugs) is not allowed on school property in the state of Illinois,” Knox wrote in his letter. “This isn't just an IHSA policy, it is a state law.” Knox urged the district to address the matter directly.

ALTON - Calvary Christian School students will feed 5,000 people across the globe through a fundraising campaign. On Friday, Oct. 10, 2025, the students at Calvary Christian School came together to pack 5,000 meals. Of these, 4,000 will be transported to schools and refugee camps in Bangladesh, and 1,000 will be distributed locally through the Community Hope Center . Pastor Wade Dobson noted that the experience was a way to impart some of the school’s most important lessons. “We’re always talking to them about thinking of others first and loving your neighbor,” Pastor Dobson said. “This is a way for them to do that in our own community, which is important, but then also to think globally about people around the world that need that as well.” Calvary Christian School opened last year through Calvary Baptist Church in Alton. As a private school, they were looking for an opportunity to fundraise when Pastor Dobson discovered The Champion Grou
