WELCOME to the 2012-2013 School Year

 Parents, Guardians and Students: Welcome to Community High School, the home of the Eagles! We, CHS teachers and students, soar like Eagles and strive for success. Thank you for choosing to be a student at our school. We are focused and dedicated to your success in high school and beyond, and we hope that you will become as focused and dedicated to your future as we are proud of our students, teachers, staff, School Board and community for supporting our efforts and believing in our students.

I am the new principal and am excited about the up and coming 2012-2013 school year. Here is some information about me. I have 18 years of experience working with the Department of Juvenile Justice in NJ.  I have over 26 years of experience working with at risk youth in the following settings, urban, rural, alternative, and detention.

You are now a part of a randomly-assigned Small Learning Community where your teachers will know you, care about you, and help you build your skills for success. In your SLC Team, you will not only pursue your program of studies. In addition, you will have the opportunity to participate in collaborative learning activities that explore real world issues based on common topics planned by your teachers.

Your teachers and I are looking forward to getting to know each and every one of you. We are very enthusiastic about the opportunities that you are bringing to our campus. Let’s have a great year together at Community High
