Are You IReady? STAR Replaced by New Program
For many years, STAR has been one of the top programs we use in the school alongside Aspen, Studysync, and Alexs.

CHS Homecoming Parade By Isabella Carlow
The floats looked great, and the whole parade itself was well put together and entertaining. Both teachers and students worked hard to organize this event and make it possible. From the people marching in the parade to the police officers blocking off roads, the town worked together to hold this event. Overall, the parade was a success as it brought the community closer and reminded us of the importance of having fun.

CHS Community Celebrates Free Speech BY SAMUEL HIERS
Be prepared for some exciting and inspiring events going forward in the week of February 6th! During morning announcements for all of this week and throughout the halls of your school, you will hear and see quotes by various authors and figures throughout history that draw attention to freedoms of speech and the power of the press. Courtesy of your lovely Entry staff, these quotes have been well-chosen to promote our club’s goals and spread awareness of the articles and content we bring to you regularly. More importantly, we hope that these quotes will inspire you to communicate ideas and information more openly without the fear of being prosecuted for what you believe.
