Changes made around school by Jordyn Ring
There were many changes in the school
over the summer. When the students re-
turned to CHS, the halls had been empty for
five months due to the pandemic.
Around the school students should have
noticed the new hand sanitizer dispensers
in every classroom and in the halls. These
were installed due to Covid-19. Students
are encouraged to use the sanitizer and to
wash their hands to prevent the spread of
germs.
There were many new upgrades in the
lunch room. The tile in the MPR, kitchen,
and bathrooms was removed by a com-
pany from Sioux Falls. New flooring was
installed by Hauf Floorcovering. Also in
the kitchen, there are a new oven and new
countertops that look very nice.

You may have noticed the new benches
around the playground for the kids and staff
to sit on.
Another addition to the school is a floor
covering in the gym. This will be used for
events when people will be on the wood
floor for a purpose other than sporting
events. The cover will protect the floor from
chips and scratches.
