Updated Senior Information

We have survived the first term! Students will receive their report cards on Friday, so be on the look out! Also, keep the graduation requirements in mind. I am attaching a copy here to refresh your memory. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the student to make sure they have everything they need for graduation. If you have any questions I am happy to answer them. 

A few things to keep in mind for the coming weeks:
1. On October 21 at 10:30 am, Steve Douglas from Graduate Services will be at school to give seniors information about graduation supplies. He will return during lunch on October 28  to take orders-you will be required to pay your deposit at this time. If you need to set up a payment plan, Graduate Services will work with you. I will have more information after the meeting.

2. Get2College will be at CHHS on October 30 from 6-7 pm for a financial aid workshop. Students are welcome to attend but the information is geared toward parents. We had a lot of good feedback from this workshop last year and we are excited to provide this opportunity again. Please follow this link to sign up through VolunteerSpot (they will also automatically send you an email reminder two days prior to the event). There will only be one session but we may open the workshop up to junior parents if we have enough space. However, senior parents will have priority. 

3. The deadline for Senior Dues has been pushed back to the end of October. Please let me know if you have extenuating circumstances and need more time.

4. The deadline for Senior Yearbook Ads has also been extended to November 7. Mrs. Nobles is your contact for yearbook and senior ad information. All ads must be created online. Please follow the instructions below to create your ad:

  • Visit balfour.com and find our school
  • Select ad size
  • Create an account (name, email and password)
  • Enter student's first and last name, click Create New Ad
  • Choose template
  • Upload photos and design ad
  • Click Add to Cart and Checkout-the ad is delivered to our yearbook staff
5. As you receive scholarship offers please bring a copy to the Guidance Office. Even if you are not planning to attend the school that still counts toward your personal scholarship total. We will announce all scholarship offers at Awards Night in May, however, we cannot announce scholarships if you do not turn them in to us! 

6. The deadline to register for the December ACT is November 7. This is the last ACT most schools accept for scholarships. 

Keep checking back for more updates and scholarships!
