1. How do I schedule a parent/teacher conference? Parent/teacher conferences can be scheduled by contacting the Counseling Office. Most issues are resolved by phone. We will give the teacher the contact information and have them to call you. However, if a face to face meeting is necessary, we will accommodate that meeting during the teacher’s planning period or after school (depending on the availability of the teacher). We also have parent teacher conferences that are scheduled for October 25 & 30 and January 10 & 15 from 3:15 – 6:15pm.

2. How is my child doing in class? Contact your child’s teacher by calling the front office and leaving a message for the teacher or e-mail your child’s teacher by going to the CHS website.

3. What are the dates for student progress reports? September 17, November 14, February 4, and April 10.

4. What are the dates for report cards? October 22, January 10, March 17, and June 2.

5. Is tutoring available at CHS? Yes! Listen to the announcements for days, times and locations. We have teachers that have tutoring before and after school. We also have also have a Peer Tutoring program that uses students to tutor those students in need of help before and after school. Again, listen to the announcements and check the school website for more details.

6. How do I request make-up work? Students who are absent may request assignments through the CHS Office. (475-5850) Students should check with their teachers upon returning to class for their missed assignments.

7. How do I withdraw my child from CHS? To officially withdraw from school, a parent/guardian must notify the CHS Counseling Office. On the last day of attendance, the student should report to the counseling to pick up a withdrawal form. Signatures must also be obtained from designated persons in the school. This completed form, along with an unofficial transcript, will be given to the student when all records/debts are cleared and lock and books and are returned.

8. How does a student get promoted from one grade to the next? A student must earn 5 credits to be considered a 10th grader, 11 credits to be an 11th grader and 17 credits to be considered a 12th grader. If a student is retained in a grade, it does not mean that they will not be able to take courses for the next (higher) grade. Example: A student passed English I, but only earned a total of 4 credits during their freshman year. They are technically still a freshman, but will still be able to take English II. Students can “catch up” on credits by passing all their classes, e4TN online classes or by doing Credit Recovery for the core subject classes.

9. When should my child first take the ACT? We highly suggest that they take it during the spring of their 11th grade year. Test dates on www.actstudent.org.

10. How do I obtain record information about myself or my student? We only have records available dating back to 1993 that include information such as, birth certificate, and immunization records. We also cannot guarantee that information is in there.

11. How do I obtain a copy of my transcript for myself or college? All requests must be in writing. There is a transcript request form on the school homepage. We also can accept a fax that includes the full name at the time of graduation, graduation year, and birth date.
