From the Principals...
Thank you to all our families who joined us for Parent-Teacher conferences this past Monday! We had about 85% of conferences (229 out of 270) scheduled attended by our families! Your partnership with our CJHS staff will ensure that we uphold our high expectations for academic excellence along with the social emotional support our students need to be successful throughout the school year.
Another huge thank you to all who joined us for our Veteran's Day assembly this morning! It was truly an honor to recognize the outstanding contributions of our CJHS community Veterans.
