Congratulations to our 8th graders who were invited to perform at the CHS Band’s annual 8th grade night! The students performed the Pre-Game ceremony, in the amphitheater, and even got special on-field access to watch the high school band perform their half time show. Thank you to Dr. Carr and Mr. Nelson for creating such a loving and welcoming experience. Your high school members were incredible hosts as well as all parents and staff involved.
