Celebrating Our Amazing Assistant Principals!
As Assistant Principals Week (April 7-11) comes to a close, we at Churchill High School want to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for the incredible dedication and hard work of our Assistant Principals, Dr. Kim Vangel and Dr. Rob Hess.
Our APs are truly the backbone of Churchill High School. Every day, they go above and beyond to support our Lancers' access to learning and vital educational resources. Their commitment to fostering a safe and positive school environment is evident in their consistent presence, whether they are supervising hallways, supporting classrooms, or ensuring the smooth running of special events.
But their contributions extend far beyond these essential tasks. Dr. Vangel and Dr. Hess are invaluable leaders, mentors, and problem-solvers who positively impact the lives of our students and staff in countless ways.
Thank you, Dr. Vangel and Dr. Hess, for your unwavering dedication to Churchill High School and our Lancer community! Your hard work and commitment to our students are deeply appreciated.
Go, Lancers!

Some Language Arts classes will attend. Students who want to attend individually need to preregister in advance with Debbie or Jennifer in the library and get permission from their Period 2 teacher.
Friday, April 25th: Emily Halnon
Emily is the author of the book To The Gorge: Running, Grief, Resilience & 460 Miles on the Pacific Crest Trail. After Emily's mother died, she decided to try to break the record for the Fastest Known Time by a woman on the Pacific Crest Trail's 460 miles across Oregon. She wound up breaking all the known records as she ran on the trail for more than 7 seven days. She will be talking about her experience running ultramarathons and running on the Pacific Crest Trail as well as dealing with grief and her journey in the creative nonfiction writing process.
