CCHS Construction Trades classes and our maintenance department have been hard at work beautifying our courtyard. Recently we have been enjoying the courtyard and our great Texas weather by eating lunch during the week under the magnificent oak trees. We can continue enjoying the new eating areas only if we take care of it. Please take responsibility for your trash. If friends decide it’s someone else’s responsibility, remind them it’s his/her responsibility. If you see a piece of trash without an owner, pick it up and deliver it to one of the many garbage cans. We have something that most high schools do not, and that’s a beautiful courtyard with grand old oak trees, and student groups that have dedicated their time to make a nice area to enjoy each other’s company at lunch time. In order to continue enjoying the opportunity we have, we must take care of the area and keep it clean.   be mindful of this and please help us keep our new outside area beautiful that way everyone can enjoy it.

Seniors… Check Naviance for updated Scholarships, CCHS Band Booster and the CCHS PTSA are now available.
