Messages from ASB Council
Hello Pumas,
We hope that you guys had a great week off to relax and spend time with family. As we are nearing the end of the semester, remember to always try your best without overworking yourself as finals start rolling in. Know your limits and allow yourself to have necessary breaks in between homework and studying. Stay safe and have a great December!
Reece Kirkpatrick and Anastasia Nechay
ASB Secretaries/Treasurers.
Hey Pumas!
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! We’re now approaching our last month before we end the first semester! These past few months flew by despite the unfortunate events. However, we hope you guys continue to stay motivated, and please do not feel hesitate to reach out to us or your teachers! Push through, hang in there, and finish strong!
Jordan Burr and Erianna Ventenilla
ASB President and Vice President

STEP #1
All Graduates are required to "REGISTER" online with SoCal Recognition, Inc.
THIS MUST BE THE STUDENT NAME FOR REGISTRATION. NO PARENT NAMES!
- In order for CHS ASB to know WHO has purchased a cap and gown the registration must be in the STUDENT GRAD name. Parents can use themselves as the contact info on registration.
- All Cap and gown orders come with a 2021 tassel and medallion.
- If students are planning on using a sibling gown, approved gowns have the CHS "Crest" embroidered on the gown. You will then need to purchase the Cap and tassel separately.
- If you have the "C" gown please contact Mrs. Baron.
STEP #2
Seniors and Senior Families will receive an email confirming their registration information and can go back online to https://www.socalrecognition.com/ to complete their order for all Graduation Products including Caps & Gowns. FallGrad10 can be used as a Promo Code (through December 1st) for 10% off the Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum Packages. In addition, ColdNights20 can be used as a Promo Code (through December 1st) for 20% off the Senior Performance Hoodie and Senior Sherpa Pullover/
SPECIAL NOTE
All Graduation Products (except for Cap & Gown Unit) are manufactured, packaged, and drop-shipped directly to the student's home address. To confirm, Caps & Gowns will be delivered ON CAMPUS prior to the Graduation Commencement Events at a more traditional delivery and distribution.

More Good News Seniors! CSU deadline has also been extended to Dec 15th.
To better serve high school and community college students facing university admissions challenges caused by COVID-19, the California State University (CSU) will extend its fall 2021 priority application deadline to December 15, 2020 at 11:59 PM PST. The Cal State Apply Support hours have been extended as well.
We do encourage applications to be submitted as soon as possible.
If student and their family have experienced a significant change in income they may qualify for an application fee waiver appeal. Fee waiver appeals are handled by the individual CSU campuses. The student would need to contact each campus(es) they are interested in applying. Contact information for campuses can be found at: https://www2.calstate.edu/apply/Pages/contact-a-campus.aspx.
