CHS Life Skill Flag Raffle

Students in the Life Skill Intro to Industry class at CHS have completed a flag project that was started as a Veteran’s Day project. The students broke apart recycled pallets and collected all of the recyclable materials. After doing so, they cut, glued, and sanded the boards into a single, solid board. The students used a saw guide to cut grooves into the material for the stripes and the blue field before taping, priming, and painting the flag. The students drilled holes and fastened dowel rods into each corner of the flag for added support. The entire project took around four weeks to complete. The students selected a veteran’s charity to donate half of their proceeds from the project. They chose K9s for Warriors. The other half of the proceeds will provide students with a guided experience outside of school where they can put their life skills to use. Your support will provide these students with experiences they are not likely to forget. The online silent auction will end on President’s Day (February 20, 2023)
