    WHY YOU SHOULD GIVE 

    The CHS PTO supports and enhances the education of students through volunteering, fundraising, and fostering relationships among members of the school community — teachers, staff, parents, and students alike. How does the PTO achieve this mission, and how much does it cost?*  

    FACULTY/STAFF APPRECIATION

    We provide multiple meals and snacks to honor our hardworking faculty and staff at key moments, including back-to-school night, fall and spring conferences, before the winter holiday, and at year’s end ($8,600). 

    SUPPORT FOR CHS

    We directly support student planners and faculty and staff special projects not funded through conventional District channels ($12,300). Past awards include a video camera and a still camera for photo journalism students and newspaper staff; a combination metal lathe/mill used by robotics students to make custom parts; and Catalyst’s modernized meeting room reservation system.
