Sports
The CHS athletic program is an important part of our students’ physical growth and is invaluable in their development of character, leadership, discipline, and sportsmanship.
The following competitive sports may be offered to junior high and high school students during different seasons of the school year: soccer (co-ed), track (co-ed), tennis (co-ed), volleyball (girls), and basketball (girls and boys teams). Paid Taekwondo classes taught by an 8th-degree master-level instructor are available throughout the year.
Secondary students earn physical education credit by participating in school-sponsored athletic programs like those listed above or by logging time spent each week (80 minutes minimum) in personal athletic and fitness activities such as club sports, dance, jogging, cycling, weightlifting, aerobics, etc. Parents verify their child’s weekly engagement, and completed logs are submitted at the end of each quarter.
“If anyone competes as an athlete, he does not receive the victor’s crown unless he competes according to the rules…physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.” (II Timothy 2:5; I Timothy 4:8)
