Arena “Tour”
The new CHS Arena is near completion! This facility is an exciting addition to our campus and will serve many purposes: additional space for PE/athletics, games, color guard competition, Senior Award Assembly, etc.
The arena will be open to staff interested in getting a sneak peek on Wednesday, February 3, 4:00- 4:45 pm. If you plan to attend, please meet Mr. Jasso (or other assigned administrator) at the north parking lot doors.
