CHS Key Club and FCCLA held their annual Turkey Trot during advisory on Tuesday, Nov. 25. Students paid  $1 to "trot" out of advisory to the commons to hang out with friends and purchase various baked goods. The event raised $400 for the YMCA Buddy Bags program, which helps to ensure all children have nutritious food at home on the weekends. Way to go, CHS!

Former CHS graduate and United States Marine, Gabe Wedlock, stopped by today during lunch and also spoke with students in his former senior English class with Mrs. Kelly. We’re proud of the path he’s taken and grateful for his service to our country. He emphasized to students that success isn’t given, it's earned. He shared how challenging his training was, and how much pride he felt knowing he had truly earned that accomplishment. Thank you, PVT Wedlock!
