We appreciate all she does as our athletic trainer, and we also are grateful for all Mrs. Oglesby-Hendrix does as a coach of several sports and a high school transition teacher. #NationalAthleticTrainingMonth


Today was a much anticipated day for CHS Band members! Our musicians participated in LGPE (Large Group Performance Evaluation) at Georgia Southern University. In total, participants played four concert pieces--three prepared in advance and one played just six minutes after seeing it for the first time. The performances were beautiful, and tremendous growth was observed. Way to play, Tigers!
