COUNSELORS CORNER

Welcome back! We hope your break was restful and fun, and that you are ready to start the semester excited to learn! The counseling department is preparing for 2019-2020 registration and there are several activities planned. On Friday, Mrs. Lohr and Mrs. Petersen met with the 8th grade students to share information for next year's classes and answer questions they may have about high school. Monday, January 14, the 8th grade class will be visiting CHS during the day, then returning that night for the 8th Grade Open House. We look forward to seeing our incoming Freshman class!


Current Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior students will have the opportunity to meet with their counselors to discuss classes and credits and start planning which courses they want to take. Also happening this month, EVIT registration! Be sure to listen to the announcements and pick up applications in the counseling office when registration opens. And, speaking of EVIT, we are heading to the EVIT Expo on Saturday, January 26 to tour and learn more about the programs. If you want to go, be sure to sign up in the counseling office!
