First PTC Meeting of the Year! - August 12 at 5:00
💜 CHS Families, You're Invited! 💛
Join us for the first CHS Parent-Teacher Cooperative (PTC) meeting of the year!
Whether you're looking to get involved, meet other CHS families, or simply learn more about what the PTC does, we'd love to have you. Coming to the first meeting doesn't commit you to anything, it's simply an opportunity to hear about our plans for the year and share your ideas.
We're looking for parents who want to help us plan throughout the year, volunteer for an event or two, fill an open board position, or share a special talent, business, or community connection that could make our events even better.
We'd love your ideas, your creativity, and your input! We're better together!
Can't attend? No worries! Meeting minutes will be posted emailed to members and posted in our parent Facebook groups so you can stay informed.
Tuesday, August 12 - PTC Meeting at 5:00 Everyone Welcomed

💜 Help Your Student Stay Connected!
One of the best ways for you student to stay informed about everything happening at CHS is through Student Government (SGA)!
Student Government (SGA) is your student's source for everything happening at CHS! Throughout the year, SGA shares information about 🏈 Homecoming, 🎉 Spirit Weeks, student section themes, class T-shirt sales, senior traditions, volunteer opportunities, and other student events, clubs, and organizations.
Please encourage your student to follow @cville.sga.hs on Instagram. From there, they'll be able to find and follow their specific class Instagram page. Students can also reach out to one of their class officers for information on joining their class GroupMe and following their class social media accounts.
Following these pages is the best way to stay informed so they don't miss important announcements, deadlines, and all the fun happening throughout the school year.
Go Canes! 💜💛
