Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

We want to thank our dedicated and hard-working CHS teachers this week (and every day). Education continues to change with the times, Artificial Intelligence, cell phone addiction, and a strong social media presence makes teaching a very challenging profession. This week we take time to celebrate our teachers, to thank our teachers, and acknowledge their profound influence on our CHS students.
