Cape Hatteras Secondary School, This Week at Cape Hatteras Secondary School May 27th Edition

CHSS Alumni Offer Advice

This past week, Mrs. Suzanne Jennette invited former CHSS Alumni to come and speak to the senior class about what to look for this upcoming year when they begin college.  The former students each discussed items from housing, class options, food choices, degrees, how to pay for college, and many other items that the future students may encounter the next couple of years in college.  The senior class asked questions and received some great advice on how to plan and prepare for their freshman year.  Thank you to the seven alumni that came to talk with the students.

 

Carisa Rausch Wins Award

Congratulations to senior Carisa Rausch who won a citizenship award from the Daughters of the American Revolution Society for an essay that she wrote this school year. This is taken from the DAR website: "The DAR Good Citizens Award and Scholarship Contest, created in 1934, is intended to encourage and reward the qualities of good citizenship.This award recognizes and rewards individuals who possess the qualities of dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism in their homes, schools, and communities. These students are selected by their teachers and peers because they demonstrate these qualities to an outstanding degree."  Carisa was sent a certificate along with a cash prize for winning the award.   Great job!!
