What's happening at CHS?
CHS is participating in an innovative campaign known as the Arizona College Application Campaign, which we have fondly abbreviated into yet another acronym ACAC. The overall goal is to get every senior at CHS to apply to college on November 19 and 20. As we move toward these dates we hope to generate some interest and excitement around school. Please consider helping this effort by participating as described below:
- T-Shirt Thursdays: Wear your alma mater t-shirts or t-shirts from any college on Thursdays
- Door decorating: It’s not just for Christmas anymore! Begin collecting pennants, pictures, or anything from your chosen college or colleges that you could use to decorate your door. We’ll shoot for having our doors decorated in early November to coincide with our accreditation (ECap?) visit on November 5 & 6.
- Talk about your college experience and engage students in conversations about what they might hope for in college.
Group Data Meetings (GDMs)
Each wednesday at 2:15pm we hold GDMs in room 200. Anyone interested in attending is welcome. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss and decide on appropriate academic and or behavioral interventions for students who have been identified as at risk (or at promise as the case may be). Next meeting is Wednesday, September 24.
Looking Ahead
- On October 2nd, from 1pm to 3pm in the Large Gym there will be a College and Career Readiness Fair. Please spread the word and allow all students the opportunity to attend.
- October 6-11 is homecoming week. We will conclude the HC school week with a parade, pep assembly and filming of our second CHS LipDub.
