POSITIVE PARENTS ORGANIZATION

CHS has a great way for you, parents and guardians, to become more informed and involved in your child's high school education.  The Positive Parents Organization has four committees and encourages you to join one of them.

Academic Committee - rewards students for excelling in their studies with special events and gifts

Graduation & Baccalaureate Committee - plans, decorates, and hosts Graduation and Baccalaureate receptions and decorates for the Baccalaureate program

Spirit Committee - assists Student Council Sponsors with planning and decorating for the Homecoming Dance in November and for the Prom in April

Hospitality Committee - helps with CHS Club inductions, hosts the Senior Picnic and helps celebrate National Teacher Appreciation Week

Each of these committees meets at separate times at CHS.  Planning for this school year will begin after the August CHS Open House.

For more information about Positive Parents, call CHS at 377-2222, or contact Dianne Moore at diannemm@alltel.net
