CHS Homecoming 2015: Unforgettable Memories Made
CHS Homecoming was on the weekend of September 18th. The sun was shining bright on the beautiful warm morning at the Homecoming Day Parade.

Cleanup Crew: One Junior Advisory Takes on the Courtyard
You might be thinking, why would anyone even care about the courtyard? No one even uses it. Well why not? Why not do something genuine and help out? We made a plan and committed to a date and time to do the clean up.
All That Jazz
If you routinely come to school a tad bit early, there’s a good chance you heard the dulcet tones of your local CHS Jazz Ensemble emanating from the Old Cafeteria a few weeks ago.

CHS Teacher of the Year
Getting this honor made Dr. Ruffolo feel special, but he didn’t take all the honor for himself.

The changing colors of leaves from green to roasty red and yearning yellow mark the beginning of fall festivities
Introvert at Heart
Each day, after two
Out of school she flew.
To escape the crowds,
She pushed and plowed
Questions on My Mind
After college what could be my career ?
In the future, dreading work every day is what I fear.
I love to write, but I want to be a lawyer.
I’ll do better in court than writing the next Tom Sawyer.
