Chattahoochee has lead the way for all of the surrounding high schools. We are glad the school will now shine as brightly aesthetically as it does academically. www.chattcougar.com // www.chattcougarptsa.org 2 Let’s Chatt—A PTSA Sponsored Newsletter From the Principal’s Desk Chattahoochee High School Tim Duncan It is official and we are very excited …. The Fulton County Board has voted at their March 20th meeting and approved the renovations for Chattahoochee High School. The scope of work will begin this May and is scheduled to be completed by July 2015. Congratulations to Jennie Blevins, Jan Jensen and the very talented actors who performed in this year’s production of “Grease” to packed audiences. We are still receiving rave reviews and what a treat it was when our very own Mr. Corrigan surprised the crowd with his rendition of Beauty School Dropout. Congratulations to the Chattahoochee Academic Team for winning the 6A State Championship on Saturday, March 22nd, 2014. The team, comprised of seniors Julia Tallant and James Tang, juniors Nirav Ilango, Sahrudh Dharanendra, and Amith Punyala, and sophomore Aditya Duddikunta, won the title by defeating Brookwood, Alpharetta, and Collins Hill in the playoffs. This is the 4th State Championship in the past seven years for the CHS Academic Team. I’m filled with “Hooch Pride” as we recently celebrated 74 students who were inducted into the National Honor Society, a most prestigious organization bringing the total number of NHS members to 153. Thanks go out to Michael Bennett and his committee for overseeing this year’s NHS Induction Ceremony. As always, April will be a busy month at Chattahoochee. Prom will take place at The Tabernacle on Saturday, April 26th and Honors Night will be held on Tuesday, April 22nd. Of course, everyone is looking forward to Spring Break which is April 7th through 11th this year. SPRING will be a busy time for testing with End Of Course Tests starting on April 28th. AP Tests begin on May 5th and will run through May 16th. Final Exams are scheduled for May 21st – 23rd. I must urge all parents to be cautious when scheduling your vacations. Check your student’s exam schedule and plan accordingly. The school cannot be very flexible with exams and a zero on a final could be disastrous to your child. During the springtime, the students will need your motivation more than ever to help them stay focused as the school year comes to an end. Before we know it, Graduation will be here for the Class of 2014. Graduation will be held at Mt. Pisgah United Methodist Church again this year and will take place on Saturday, May 24th at 10:00 a.m. Be sure to check the “Senior Graduation Information” link on the website at www.chattcougar.com for all the latest news and info regarding this year’s graduation, as well as all upcoming concerts, events and complete sport schedules. Once again, I thank you for all your continued support. As we continue to build upon our Tradition of Excellence, let’s remember that by working together the possibilities are endless. Sincerely, Tim C. Duncan Principal www.chattcougar.com // www.chattcougarptsa.org 3 Let’s Chatt—A PTSA Sponsored Newsletter Chattahoochee High School Chattahoochee PTSA Update…. Joyce Foster With only two months left in the school year we are reminded of the many choices that will be made before the school year ends. Our seniors will need to make decisions about which college to attend or if college is in their immediate future. Our juniors will have to start thinking about college visits and the application process. We encourage all students to take advantage of the many resources that are available to them in the College & Career Center and in the Counseling Office that can help guide their decisions. In the coming weeks several seminars and activities have been scheduled for these groups. Please encourage your student to take full advantage of each opportunity. The CHS PTSA will need a lot of volunteer support for all of the activities that have been planned for the remainder of the year. Volunteer solicitations will be posted on the PTSA website and Facebook fanpage. Take a look at the list of activities that are planned and consider how you can help: Springfest- this year the PTSA is partnering with Mr. Duncan to provide carnival rides and games at Springfest- April 17th. CHS Honors Night- this PTSA sponsored event recognizes student academic achievement and will be followed by a reception- April 22nd. A/P Test Proctoring- a large number of volunteers will be needed to proctor A/P exams. Last year there were a record number of test administered. Book Returns- volunteers will be needed to help process returned books during the last weeks of school. Have a wonderful spring break! Thank you for your continued support of the PTSA, Mr. Duncan, and his staff as we strive to continue the Tradition of Excellence at the Hooch!

The students, seniors taking AP Spanish and members of the group Latinos Moving Forward, went to the supermarket with their own money and bought rice, beans, pasta, Maseca tortilla mix, chocolate, oil and baby wipes to help out LAA families in need. The students raised about $200, said Chattahoochee High School staffer Elizabeth Lopez-Smith, who coordinated the donation. In addition to donating the food, the students wrote letters in Spanish to the LAA and the families it serves. "Your organization gave our class the opportunity not only to be grateful for what we have, but also to give to those who do not have as much as we have," read one of the letters. "I am very grateful to your organization because this opportunity has made me a better person." Another student wrote: "Thanks a million for the opportunity to help people who are not as fortunate as the majority of the population." "The students were happy and excited about the idea of helping others," said Lopez-Smith. "We would like to do this again." And yet another student wrote: "We enjoyed going to the store and getting some of our favorite products for other families. The Latin American Association is The LAA has a food an incredible organizapantry and clothing Lopez-Smith, right, delivered the food donations tion that is doing woncloset in the Family Services derful things for people in need Department.

Then you are hit with Round Two as the shrubs begin their assault. As they start to bloom and pollen gets airborne, so begin the sniffling and sneezing of the seasonal allergy sufferers as these tiny grains have reached their noses, eyes, lungs and skin causing the release of histamines. Histamines are what trigger the symptoms of allergies. These include the runny nose, sneezing and coughing, watery and itchy eyes, nasal congestion, itchy throat, post nasal drip, and dark circles under the eyes. Pollen allergies can also cause asthma to worsen and lead to sinus and ear infections. Allergy symptoms may be prevalent on breezy days when the wind is carrying pollen through the air. If your student has not been diagnosed with allergies before but is exhibiting these symptoms, you may want to take him to the doctor for evaluation. The following are tips to surviving allergy season by trying to avoid pollen exposure: * Keep windows and outside doors closed Chattahoochee High School Francis Hill-Portwood (Ms. H-P) * Remove your clothing when you come indoors and shower and wash your hair; * Keep pets that spend time outdoors out of your bedroom. If limiting pollen exposure is not doing the trick, there are OTC medications that your doctor may recommend. Antihistamines, topical nose sprays, and eye drops can effectively manage allergy symptoms. Although decongestants may be used, they are designed for colds and should not be used for more than a week; hay fever can last for weeks. The doctor may prescribe medications if OTC medications are not effective. Students at Chattahoochee are allowed to carry OTC oral antihistamines without an authorization form. However, certain other OTC medications and all prescription medications must be stored in the school clinic along with a completed authorization form. As some of these medications may make a person drowsy, be wary of allowing your teenager to drive while taking them. Oh, and then Round Three may take a wallop at you during summer when the grass makes you wishing for that cold white stuff. Nah – enough of winter! * Avoid using window and attic fans * Keep your car windows rolled up and set the ventilation to recirculate * Wear sunglasses when outside “The worst was the tiniest pollen you couldn’t see but managed to infiltrate your brain like some Nature terrorist, smother your entire body and color your car and your life entirely yellow.” ~Denny Lyon www.chattcougar.com // www.chattcougarptsa.org 10 Let’s Chatt—A PTSA Sponsored Newsletter Chattahoochee High School Honor Roll Celebration The 2013 Fall Honor Roll Celebration was held on Wednesday March 26th.
