The first organizational meeting was held in November 1984. Mike King, Mary Ann Stalvey, Irby Koon, Howard Smith, Chip Brown, Richard Lovelace, Marshall Sasser, among others, created the CHS Educational Foundation.
The Foundation became a vehicle through which the community could make tax-free donations to support and enhance educational opportunities in the classroom and beyond.
The CHS Educational Foundation reaches out to YOU to become a part of this continued commitment of excellence in education. Your support can become the very lifeline for continued prosperity in every aspect of our school and, as a result, of our entire community. Educational Foundation donations are tax exempt. Consider giving to CHSEF in honor or memory of someone today.
