The CHS Speech Team has been working hard since the end of November to have a
successful and competitive season. And, last week, the team earned second place in Class B
events! Head Coach, Mrs. Lanphear, and Assistant Coach, Mrs. Welch, are new Speech
coaches this year. With more than 60% of the team new members (already completing at the
Varsity level at their second meet), this is a team to watch!
