Donate Today! 

The Parent Representatives for the Class of 2026 host events throughout the school year to build community among the parents, students and faculty while simultaneously fundraising for the Class of 2026 senior year special events. 

If you have not yet made a donation to the Class of 2026, we ask that families who are able to contribute a one time donation (at some point before senior year) to support the cost of these class specific events. At the end of junior year, we will create our budget from what we have raised to cover the cost of the Senior Events such post Post Prom, Senior Sunrise, Senior Sunset, Movie Night, Senior Lunch, Senior Gifts and more!

Check your email for a letter that was sent to the Class of 2026 families Monday evening. Here is a link to that letter if you missed it. And if you have any questions, feel free to email us HERE.

Summer Snack Fundraiser Coming this Week

Be on the lookout for an important email coming this Thursday afternoon with information about our final fundraiser of the year. This will be a quick 4-day fundraiser beginning on Thursday, June 6th at 5pm and ending on Monday, June 10th at 5pm. We will share a link to a popcorn sale and 50% of the sales will go directly to the class of 2026. Don’t like popcorn? There’s an option to purchase a bag that will be donated to an essential worker. 

Stay Informed! 

The best way to stay informed about Class of 2026 events is to confirm your data in the school directory EVERY year. Once you confirm your data in the Membership Toolkit at the start of every school year (August/September), you are officially on our email distribution list for that school year.

Final Parent Night Out a Success

Thank you to everyone who joined us last week for our parents night out at Aperitivo Bar. We had a wonderful time catching up with old friends and meeting new people. Thank you to John Procaccini for allowing us to host it there. The drinks and food were delicious!

All PTO expense reimbursement requests must be received by the treasurer, Darlene Walsh, by June 20th, or the expense will be considered a donation to the PTO. Please cash any outstanding reimbursement checks immediately. 

If your student receives a scholarship check from the CHS PTO, please deposit the check by June 20th. 

We cannot have trailing expenses because they would unfairly impact next year’s financials. The check request form can be found on our website. The PTO treasurer will happily accept scanned forms and receipts to her email.
