It’s hard to believe it’s been several months since we featured one of our students working at Georgia Fruitcake Company. Two more Work-Based Learning students have since joined the team there, and they have been serving up all kinds of delicious treats to the good people of the Claxton-Evans County area. Recently. Work-Based Learning Coordinator Mrs. Johns enjoyed an afternoon muffin and was greeted and helped by senior Cristian Muñoz! It’s always a treat to engage with our CHS students out in the professional community. Post graduation, Cristian plans to attend GSU and major in Accounting. He has gained invaluable experience in the operation of a small business, and he looks forward to a career in numbers. Perhaps he will be handling your books one day! CHS is proud of you, Cristian! #TheDEN #BlackAndGoldBuildingSuccess
