What
is ASB?
ASB stands
for Associated Student Body. When ASB is referred to, it
means the group of students that is selected and elected to
represent the entire student body of CHS. This is the
student government of CHS. Throughout the years, CHS has
been blessed with creative, dedicated, and responsible ASB
officers.

Why should I get an ASB card?
Every
school year during registration, students are required to
get a photo ID card. You will use this ID card for checking
out textbooks and verifying who you are throughout the
school year. This ID card also allows you to attend CHS
events at the full admission price. When you pay the fee for
the ASB card, you are actually getting "ASB" stamped on your
student ID card instead of a stand alone card. When
you attend a CHS event, whether it is a dance or say... a
football game, you show your ID card to the ticket takers at
the event. They see the ASB logo and discount a % off the
admission price. You can also get discounted tickets in
advance of the actual event date when ASB announces event
tickets going on sale.
