than your budget CHPCS uniform closet will be open on Field Trip Fridays from 3:30-4:00. All items are $3.00 and all proceeds go to PTA. Donations to the Uniform Exchange can be left in

7th Annual PTA Jog-A-Thon a huge success


Thanks for your support!
Sounds of cheering and shouts of encouragement could be heard as Grandparents, Parents, Teachers, VIPs and Volunteers were on hand to watch CHPCS students run, walk and skip for our 7th Annual PTA Jog-A-Thon.THANK YOU to all our Volunteers, Parents, Teachers, Students and Sponsors for making this year’s Jog-A-Thon a huge success!!! And a special thank you to Mrs. Stores and Mr. Weaver for all of your work coordinating the event and to Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Novotny for rounding up such a wonderful group of volunteers.
Funding from the Jog-A-Thon allows for the numerous hands-on materials that students have access to in their classrooms. The generous giving during the Jog-A-Thon supports teacher stipends. Teachers simply would not have the personal budget each year to supply items such as: new books, project materials, food ingredients, classroom incentives, and more. The success of the Jog-A-Thon allows CHPCS to live out its mission of providing students with hands-on, multi-sensory learning.
