  1. Chattanooga's Chambliss Center for Children has opened its time capsule that was buried in 1937. The opening, attended by board members and friends of the agency, was meant as a celebration of the hospital's legacy of serving Chattanooga families for 150 years. The time capsule contained multiple newspapers, a topographical map of the campus, an agency brochure, and numerous photographs. (Chattanooga Times Free Press)
  2. Hamilton County Schools will be forming a committee to review the "Bible in the Schools" curriculum. The program is privately funded and allows students to electively take Bible history courses in Chattanooga schools. The committee will include faith leaders from different backgrounds, according to Superintendent Justin Robertson. (Chattanooga Times Free Press)
  3. The Chattanooga Green Prix taught local students about sustainability over the weekend. Over 25 electric vehicle clubs from Hamilton County Schools participated in the popular event. Each team designed and raced the electric vehicles on the Chattanooga Riverfront. The teams tested the quality and durability of their vehicles. (MyFox Chattanooga)

Patch deal of the day:

Good knives make all the difference in the kitchen, but you don’t need to overpay for them. Seido Japanese knives are made with strong high-carbon stainless steel (high-carbon knives are more durable and usually more expensive) and have an acute 15-degree angle for a noticeably sharper cutting face (most Western-style knives have edge angles of 25 degrees). For a limited time, Patch readers can get a 5-piece Seido Japanese master knife set for 71 percent off. At just under $70, this chef-quality set is perfect for any home cook and would also make a great gift for the holidays.
