Around Christmas time, students from CHASE donated cat and dog food items to support the local animal shelter, iCare. We're super proud of these students for choosing to give back to help a local organization in a time of need. We know they made a positive impact! A big shoutout goes to 8th grade student, Brody Cottrell, for his extra donation of homemade dog treats.
Thank you so much, CHASE!
