DAILY ANNOUNCEMENTS
Tuesday April 14 2026
I Pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands one Nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.
Reminder students that if you park in the Staff parking areas the tickets are $25. So make sure you are parking in the North student lot or student section of the South lot by Coan field.
We haven’t had a Golden Ticket Day yet for this semester... The Golden Ticket Day is a surprise, so aim to keep your grades above a B so when the day comes you get to go.
If you want to go to Prom, skipping your scheduled Flexes hurts you in two requirements. Attendance: flex is class time and counts against attendance if you're not there. Grades: you are scheduled to be in flex to help get your grade up. So make sure you are going to your flexes to get the assistance you need to get those grades up.
CHS International Club will meet Today, April 14 during Flex 2 in Mrs. Krueger's classroom.
The sign-up for Prom has started. Get signed up before 1:45 pm on April 24. The sooner the better. Talk with your friends to make sure they have signed up. Make sure you check in the library after you sign up to make sure it went through & to check on your requirements (grades, attendance, fees, & ISASP).
We are still taking the ISASP Test this week (Not Friday). Make sure you are bringing your computers & chargers to school everyday. The library doesn’t have a lot of loaners so you need to bring your computers & chargers for the testing. Also make sure you are showing up to class so you can get the tests done. They are important and we have aimed to give you plenty of time with the schedule.
You can’t be on any electronics after you finish your test. Stop in the library to check out a book to read once you are done with your testing, if you don’t already have one. Your reading time after testing can then be recorded in Beanstack for the new book challenge.
The reading challenge “Spring into Reading” will run for all of April. Keep logging your reading minutes in Beanstack.
The Royalty Rack is ready for prom goers. If you would like to take a look at prom dresses or prom attire for the event, please email Mrs. Leafgreen at christina.leafgreen@csdkq.org to set up a time to look.
After-School Tutoring is being offered Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:45 - 4:45 in the Library! There is no cost. We have staff in most of the core classes available! Please ask a CHS teacher or administrator if you would like to attend! Great way to get those grades up for Prom or other surprise activities.
The varsity boys soccer team secured a big victory Saturday against Prince of Peace! The boys were strong in defense from the start, but it wasn't until after halftime that the offense settled in and dominated possession to take control. Adis Ravmonovski got the scoring started midway through the second half, assisted by Alonso Aguila. Then Kamden Organista cleaned up an opportunity to score his first goal of the season. Adis got involved again with an assist to Lincoln Hinrichs, who scored on a deflection to wrap things up at 3-0! Adis was selected as Man of the Match for his performance!
The River Queens were in action Monday at Duck Creek Golf Course. The Queens played well and continue to have improvements in overall team scores but are still not finding that first win despite playing much better golf this season. Team medalist today was Olivia Parker a 49 and her personal best. Also scoring were Olivia Veenstra 53, Bryleigh Shepherd 54, and A'Reyae Jetter 56. Audrie Bedford also played and continues to lower her personal best each time she goes out (59). The Queens have a break in action until next Wednesday and Thursday where they will be playing in the Falcon Invitational and Lancer Invitational back to back.
River Kings Tennis came out on top of a close one Monday against North Scott! The Kings held a narrow 2-1 lead after the doubles with wins from Vinnie Srp & Ryan Schmitz at #2 and Jace Burgland & Asher Dornbush at #3. The singles matches ended up split 3-3. Wins came from #3 Vinnie Srp, #5 Ryan Schmitz, & #6 Asher Dornbush. The team showed a lot of heart in this one! Great job Kings!
