Coronation

CORONATION- dependent on ADPH & State of Alabama guidelines

The Coronation ceremony will take place on the last Thursday of January. If there is a conflict, the senior sponsors and administration will choose another date as near the original date as possible.

Nominees for Coronation will be chosen according to the following procedure:

*To be eligible for coronation court or Mr. and Miss CHS students must have attended CHS in grades 11 and 12, have an overall “C” average, have a 90% or above attendance average for the previous and current school year and have no record of suspension, expulsion or alternative school in grades 11 and 12.

*Each member of the senior class will nominate ten girls and ten boys on a secret ballot. Ballots, which have fewer than ten nominations of girls and/or boys, will not be counted.

*The senior sponsors will tally the ballots and prepare a ballot listing the ten boys and the ten girls receiving the most nominations.

*The ballot listing the nominees of the senior class will be submitted to the faculty with each faculty member asked to choose six girls and six boys.

*The faculty’s ballots will be tallied; the six boys and the six girls receiving the most faculty votes will become the Coronation court.

*The nominees will be announced at least two weeks prior to the ceremony.

*The entire student body will vote by secret ballot the week of Coronation.

*A committee composed of one senior sponsor, one administrator, and one non-senior sponsor will tally the votes. The girl and boy receiving the highest number of votes will be crowned at Coronation as Mr. and Miss CHS, and the girl and boy receiving the second highest number of votes will be recognized as the runners-up.

*Two girls and two boys will be selected by the senior sponsors to serve as attendants. Students will also be named by the senior sponsors to serve as master of ceremonies, reception hostess, serving committee, house committee, entertainment, and spotlight operator.
