If You Miss a CHAMP Meeting...

You missed a lot if you weren't at Monday night's CHAMP meeting!

In addition to the principal's update, found below in a slide presentation (not as good as hearing Mr. Luebke live though!), you missed a collection of technology artifacts (see picture at right), a collection of old yearbooks -- one from each decade back to 1946 (pictured at left), a collection of athletic artifacts (see a picture here), and a collection of new 'motivational' pictures featured in the high school office.  On a side note, these 'motivational' pictures will soon be featured on the CHS Facebook page.

CHAMP also gave updates on their organization, including the opportunity to purchase the well-known CHAMP card for $5 at any Celina City Schools office and good at a number of local businesses for discounts.  For more on CHAMP, visit their page on www.celinaschools.org or on Facebook.

Oh yeah... and you missed warm cookies and milk!  And they were delicious!

THANKS CHAMP!

CHAMP Meeting

Tonight's CHAMP meeting brought to light many of the great things going on at CHS.

• Mrs. Rumple and some of her students from her Healthy & Safe Foods course talked about what they are doing in class.  Mrs. Rumple's classes are very popular and it was interesting to hear her discuss the history of the content she teaches... from teaching girls (mostly) how to make a 'Murphy Bed' to a much more modern curriculum that teaches building relationships, becoming good consumers, decision making skills, financial management, preparing for careers, and of course cooking & food safety.  Mrs. Rumple also talked about how they use the website http://www.mypyramid.gov/ in class to discuss and plan for healthy eating.  (This is a great resource... check it out!)

• Two members of Mrs. Black's 1st ever 'Successful Speaking' course talked about their experience in the course and the different types of speaking techniques they learned.  This class did a lot of public speaking and were also responsible for recording our daily announcements.  In addition, the students talked about their final exam project for the course.  The project was to research and present about a charity of their interest.  The group that gave the best presentation was awarded a cash prize donation (courtesy of the CHS faculty) for their charity.  Here is a clip of the presentation of the check. 

• Finally, two students, along with Ms. Sneddon and Mrs. Kramer, talked about the toy drive they sponsored right before Christmas for patients in Dayton Children's Hospital.  The students rode to Dayton at the conclusion of the toy drive to deliver the presents and had a meal at Golden Corral (courtesy of CHAMP!) Look below for a video summary of the project. 

• Finally, Mr. Luebke gave a quick update on some of the things happening recently.  Most of the conversation centered around discussion of 21st Century Skills and how CHS is changing to keep up with a change in expectations of graduating seniors.  More information to follow regarding 21st Century Skills and how changes at CHS will impact students in this regard.  Below is Mr. Luebke's presentation.  Click on the right arrow to advance the presentation.
