2021 CHS Application, Lottery & Enrollment for Class of 2025
Results of CHS Random Selection Lottery:
2021 CHS Lottery Results by Temp ID

As stated in our CHS Application & Enrollment Process, the first 132 lottery numbers will be offered seats at CHS for the 9th grade class of 2025. Therefore, lottery number “133” automatically becomes number “1” on the waitlist for this class.

Additionally, an email was sent to all applicants (from sandersk, with the subject: "CHS Lottery Results and Next Steps") on Saturday morning, April 10, with a link to lottery results along with dates for next steps. The confirmation and enrollment commitment deadline is Friday April 23, at 5:00 PM.

You can watch a recording of our Information Session Webinar (3/23/2021) here, and check out our Virtual Tour here.

Congratulations, Mock Trial Team!

They did an amazing job at the Washtenaw Regional Competition on February 20!

B Team members received an honorable mention (right behind the formidable Huron team, despite the fact that 8 out of the 11 members were new to Mock Trial this year!): Captains Ameera Salman & Ben Cooper, Evan Ash, Serena O'Brien, Izzy Jacob, Joey Lopez, Moose Gültekin, Zoe Simmons, Charlie Beeson, Stevie Dumitrascu & Grey Collier (Skyline).

A Team won first place in the tournament and will advance to the State Finals on March 20, along with the Huron team: Captains Zoe Buhalis & Martha Ribant, Charlie Solomon, Anna Stansfield, Mori Ono, Geneve Thomas-Palmer, Ava Kosinski & Hollis Riggs.

The team's success is also due in part to the hard work of alternates Noah Bernstein, Johana Horvath, and Flynn Meagher, as well as numerous volunteer coaches and returning alums.

Watch Acts 1-5 of The Tempest, by Community Ensemble Theatre

www.a2cet.org

CET was two days away from opening night of The Tempest in March 2020 when schools abruptly closed due to Covid-19. Later that fall, our cast and crew rejoined to finish the show as a 5-part miniseries shot in Zoom, making homemade green screens and doing contactless drop-offs of costumes, sets, and props. The result is a visually stunning production—all scenes shot live in Zoom—edited with special effects to create a Tempest unlike any made before. The show features newly retired teaching legend, Judith DeWoskin, as Prospera, and a cast and crew of more than 50 high school students.
