The returning club, peer helpers, has started back up with a plan to supply support to the surrounding student body. With help from guidance counseling, peer helpers establish a support system fully run by the students for students.
The club consists of students from every grade level run by President Abby Gwan-Nulla, Vice President Addison White, Secretary Enayah Mussa, and Historian Rya Bell, alongside with a diverse group of the student body.
The group plans to create a safe space for students which includes supportive events and actions. Earlier in the year, the group planted drug free pledges in support for red ribbon week and plan to do more for CHS students.
