Students in Ms. Delyea's art classes are repainting the maze at CHS on the patio of the arts wing. This is an annual tradition in preparation for up coming graduation festivities. The maze is a replica of the walking labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral in France. Students enrolled in Advanced Placement Art History study the Chartres Cathedral and its iconography during the course of instruction. It is said that moving through a walking maze with intention calms the mind. Next time you are at CHS give it a try!
Students enrolled in the visual arts programs at CHS assisted local Veterans in advance of the Memorial Day holiday to honor our deceased service members.

If you have a servicemember that needs to be added to our important work, please contact our local veterans groups.
