Senator Square

Hey all you Senators!

Last week was an amazing talent show produced to perfection by Maggie Jesse and announced by the master and mistress of ceremonies, Gus DeBacco and Lainey Henderson.

Every act was stellar, and the judges had a tough job.

First place went to Alyssa Friend for her remarkable singing. Alyssa is a senior and is very involved in the choir program at CHS as well.

Second Place went to Karenza Strode for a beautiful, graceful dance.

Third place went to a group that performed a serious skit-dance interpretation on the problems teens face. The group members were Jessica Frenna, Jamie Snoddy, Kayla Carlson, Derek Paradise, Kyle Paradise, Cole Chandler and Anthony Bachmon.

Congratulations to all who performed and participated in this annual event for the CHS video productions class.

The CHS Advanced Drama class will be performing a beautiful stage play with music called "John Brown's Body."

The story is of a dark time in American history full of war, death and slavery. This drama is not to be missed.

Directed by Karen Chandler, the CHS Chamber Singers lend their vocal talents to this production for a moving evening of American history.

Tickets are available at the door. Show dates are Tuesday through Jan. 25. Friday and Saturday shows are at 7 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.

Please come support the arts!
