On December 6th we hosted visitors from
the School Board, City Council, and State
Representatives. They were given a tour
of our programs and were able to see our
students in action.

Engineering
Academy
The Mechatronics classes at CHS helped fulfill
the Christmas wish of a young boy with
different abilities. The students brainstormed to
determine how to customize a Wild Thing to fit
his special needs. They added a remote
control, supportive chair, lighting, bluetooth
speakers, and a dinosaur theme. A special
switch was also installed to give him the ability
to control it himself. This will give him a sense
of independence and the chance to play and
interact more with his friends.

Cosmetology
Academy
CHS Cosmetology competed against
Bradley High School in a fantasy styling
competition which included hair, makeup,
nails, and costume styling. The students
came up with original characters based
on the theme "Candyland". CHS won 1st,
2nd, 3rd and Audience Choice awards.
All money collected was donated to the
