Dell Chromebooks for High School Students

Did you know that any student in the 9th-12th grade can sign up to receive a Dell Chromebook for school use?  

Students have the option to check out a Chromebook to keep with them for the remainder of the 2014-2015 school year. The fee is only $12.50 to be able to take the Chromebook home. Students also have the option to check out a Chromebook daily through the Media Center for school use only.  There is no fee for this option.

Cartwright served as one of the senior class reps for the Pennies for Patients Project taken on by CHSSCS students. The school as a whole raised $653.67 for blood cancer research. The Junior class raised the most funds with $248.50; second place went to seventh grade with $141.54; third place went to eighth grade, raising $124.66. Ms.Jarvis organized the project for the school as a way to honor the memory of middle school math teacher Scott Day. "Hopefully," says Ms. Jarvis, "we will make this an annual event."
