Senior Slideshow
Three CCS rising Seniors have been chosen through the interview process to attend the 2020 Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) conference. RYLA is an annual week-long leadership training conference that emphasizes leadership, citizenship and personal growth for young men and women who are selected to participate. This year Jason Furnari, Ray Hovis and Abby Miller have been awarded from CCS. 1st Alternate is Anna Lambert and 2nd Alternate is Jennifer Burch. CCS rising Seniors John Kennedy, Mason Raffo, and Aidan Nolan have been selected by their local American Legion to attend Boys State. American Legion Boys State is a selective educational participatory program providing government instruction for U.S. high school students. Unfortunately due to closures related to Covid-19, the 2020 RYLA conference and the 2020 American Legion Boys State conference have both been cancelled. We recognize our CCS students who have achieved selection for these honors.
