“Celebrate What’s right with<br />
the World” by DeWitt Jones.<br />
Throughout the presentation<br />
DeWitt discusses how our<br />
vision controls our perception<br />
and how that perception then<br />
becomes our reality in many facets of our lives. I could<br />
not help but think of how this relates to the vision we<br />
share as an administration, faculty, staff and student<br />
body. Dewitt also focused on the idea of celebrating<br />
the best in people and having a vision of the best<br />
possible future. For this reason I have chosen the theme<br />
“Celebrate” for the principal’s message in this issue of<br />
the alumni journal.<br />
Where do we look for something to celebrate? We have<br />
a multitude of examples right here at CovCath. I have<br />
to look no further than our students to see the good in<br />
them, the good they produce, and the good that is still<br />
yet to be achieved. We celebrate their successes, which<br />
instill them with optimism, confidence and fulfillment.<br />

achieving success on the athletic fields, or participating<br />
in one of our 42 different clubs or organizations,<br />
our young men will tell you that they feel as if CCH<br />
challenges them to work hard, be involved, and become<br />
proud members of our brotherhood of Colonels.<br />
We celebrate our faculty and staff who have sacrificed<br />
to give us many years of experience and educational<br />
leadership, believing in the good that is done here and<br />
the things we accomplish together. The passion, values,<br />
dedication, and knowledge, which the entire faculty<br />
instills on a daily basis, are manifested several times<br />
over as our graduates enter their chosen professions.<br />
each day the faculty’s presence speaks to the dedication<br />
and legacy that has been built here.<br />
Finally we celebrate our alumni. Your efforts and<br />
contributions exemplify the values and qualities that<br />
were instilled in you while you were receiving your<br />
education. These factors in themselves are reason<br />
enough to celebrate what is right with CCH.<br />
god’s blessings,<br />
