You can now watch your favorite student play LIVE from the comfort of your own home! Hudl cameras have been installed on the football field and in the Colbert gym. Games will be streamed through Hudl. Fans will have the option to purchase and view individual games rather than a yearly subscription. A tab has been created for easy access on our homepage and in our app. GO YELLOW JACKETS! 🏈🏀
Parents/Guardians of Chester CUSD 139 please keep in mind as we go through the school year that your child's bus will not always arrive for pick ups and drop offs at the exact same time everyday. Please allow a window of time before and after so we can assure your child gets off the bus safely and home to you.
Look what has arrived!!! In a little more than 24 hours, you will get a chance to win these items and some select CHS gear. Also, up for grabs will be the very popular "Front of The Lunch Line Pass" bundle(s). You don't want to miss this event. CHS "Saved By The Bell" Open House is set for 6 pm, tomorrow night!
