I teach music lessons for this school. It's absolutely one of the finest institutions I've ever seen (have been teaching in two states for nearly a decade). It's an honor to be associated with such a tremendous program and to work with the fine students it produces.

While my fellow classmates struggle with the workload on a daily basis, I am already used to the stress and can therefore thrive in such a high expectation environment.

CHS continues to cater to the one size fits all philosophy. Great school if you're academically gifted and looking for a challenge. If your child is average beware.
