When I am not at school, you'll find me:
"At home with my husband, Bob, and our four cats."
 
What CHS clubs or activities are you involved in?
"I help Mr. Wendt raise money for “The Water Project.” I think that this is an excellent organization which is extremely well suited to the goals of the IB program. I am always in awe of how eager our students are to help raise money so that a community can have access to something we take for granted."
