Homecoming Assembly a Hit

The CHS 2010 Fall Homecoming assembly was held on Wednesday.  The 10 King & Queen candidates played games, performed dances, and participated in other fun activities relating to this year's theme: Grease Lightning in front of the student body, hoping to earn their vote.  The clip below shows highlights from each couple.  

The King & Queen will be announced this Friday before the football game.  The dance will be held Saturday night from 8 - 11 PM in the gymnasium.

Spirit Week @ CHS

Frosh Science students calculate the
speed of cars going by on Wayne St.

We have many great things going on at CHS... in and out of the classroom!  Among other things in the last couple of weeks, we have seen students calculating the speed of cars coming down Wayne Street using only a stopwatch, playing miniature golf with robots, evaluating the range of motion and strength of newly learned muscles of the ankle and lower leg, learning the difference between disc and cylinder brakes (hope I got that right Mr. Dorsten!), and making commercials.  These are just a few of the things our students are doing in the classroom... the ones I have observed!

What are we doing outside of the classroom?

Well, this week, nearly EVERYONE'S attention is on the big rivalry week.  The week of the St. Marys football game is traditionally Spirit Week at CHS... what does this mean?

Batman & Robin on
Superhero Day... Do you know
their TRUE IDENTITY??

Themed dress days... tailgate parties (2 of them)... Spirit Bus to the Big Game... lots of excitement... pep assembly... band marching the halls... Spirit Freak Contest...

GO DAWGS!!!

BIG WIN

Congrats to the Bulldog football team & Coach Rolfes on a BIG win over Wapak tonight 22-13.  Check out these pics of the students getting ready to rush the field and then RING THE VICTORY BELL!!!
GO DAWGS!

Robots, AAA, & More

Golfing Robots
This week has once again been filled with a number of fun and interesting activities for students.  On Tuesday, Mr. Jenkins' Geometry class used robots to play Putt-Putt Golf.  Students had to use their knowledge of angles, segments, and geometry in general to program robots, using graphing calculators, to complete a Putt-Putt course (see pictures below).

Free AAA Maintenance Checks
On Thursday, AAA provided free Maintenance Checks for student vehicles.  50 student drivers took advantage of this free opportunity and were rewarded with a free hot dog lunch from 2 Willy's.  Five students were awarded a free AAA one-year membership:
