Press play as you view our farewell messages.

Although we have all felt the effects of this pandemic, no one has felt it as deeply as our seniors. As underclassmen and a CHS family, we would like to show our seniors how much they have meant to all of us. We created this website to send a message to our seniors as they approach their graduation and move on to the next phase of their life.

A message from our CHS administration to the Senior Class...

Mr. Pace

Principal

Stay strong and believe seniors. We have yet to "finish what we started." Be proud of all that you have accomplished - as we are of you.

More to come...

Mr. Panko

Vice-Principal

Congratulations to the class of 2020. It has been a joy to watch you all grow over the last four years. I once heard that, "progress does not travel in a straight line. It zigs and zags in fits and starts." Go out into the world with confidence and know that you are prepared to meet any challenges that your travels may bring. Most importantly, may you find joy in what do. Much respect.

Mrs. Murphy

Vice-Principal

Four years have gone by so quickly, and now it's time to start your next phase in life. Don't focus on what you have lost, but what you have gained. Strength and resilience! Know that you have the courage to be anything that you want to be, and most of all, YOU GOT THIS!

Mrs. Liguori

Math Supervisor

Congratulations...

Mrs. DiChiara

English Supervisor

Ms. Davison

Junior Class Advisor

Congratulations Class of 2020! If I was lucky enough I was once your teacher and advisor. I stand with you as you embark on this new journey in life. Always know that while the situation may look different, a few things have remained the same: Your teachers love you, your family supports you, and your home will always be CHS. Good luck with all of your future plans, and most importantly, I trust you will find a way to make the world a better place.

A message from the Class of 2020 Advisors to the Senior Class...

Ms. Dsouza

Senior Class Advisor

Class of 2020! It has been my privilege to be your Senior Class Advisor and teacher to many.

As a graduate during 9/11, I can sympathize with you. I know this is not what you imagined nor will forget. So allow your feelings to be, but do not let this distract you from all your accomplishments during these past four years. From making the Allstate Orchestra to State Sectional finals-be proud of yourselves!

Life is not always y=mx+b (linear) - so let this detour add resiliency to your character, continue to commit to your goals and let these two elements fuel you to become a responsible part of your community.

Best of luck and congratulations Graduates of 2020!

Ms. Greene

Seniors - Congratulations on your many accomplishments! I've taught some of you, coached some of you, and worked with some of you. All of you should be proud of how you have handled our recent tough times. Good luck to all and keep working hard!

Mrs. Blash

Fundraising Advisor

Dear Class of 2020,
Our time together didn’t end quite the way we thought it would. I enjoyed making so many different memories with you this year. Some of my favorite times with this class came during the painting of our parking lot, fixing the vandalism, Senior Sunrise breakfast, fall Block 3 PE Volleyball, and Powder Puff. I graduated from high school 18 years ago, the year most of you were born. My senior year of high school 9/11 happened, it was a scary time of uncertainty as well. I remember the world around me seemingly falling apart and scared of what came next. I focused on the goals, I had set for myself after high school through those uncertain times. People will never forget 9/11 just like this time in our lives will never be forgotten by many. Your class will be remembered for just the same. Although you will not have the traditional rights of passage of a senior in high school, this adversity in a time of uncertainty you face now will make you that much stronger in your future. This time provides you with a lesson of further understanding that life as beautiful as it is , is not guaranteed or what we always expect it to be. They say hindsight is 2020 but do not dwell on what has been lost. Your perseverance through this tough time will help you shine brightly in your future. The vision is clear for you Class of 2020 and you are destined for great things. I wish you nothing but the best in the future! Always feel welcome to comeback and say hi!

Love, Mrs. Blash
