On Tuesday March 12th, The CHS Office of Alumni Relations hosted Career Day for the Class of 2024. More than 50 alumni bears from across the country in a variety of career fields returned to their stomping grounds to share how CHS prepared them for the career of their choice as well as to lend advice to students interested in pursuing the similar paths. As a new addition this year, CHS invited more than 20 local businesses in various industries to present their companies at a career fair. The students were able to interact one-on-one, learn about companies and speak to representatives from the company about their mission, goals and services.
