CHAH Varsity Baseball Pitcher Cristobal Canela was honored at Yankee Stadium this week. Cristobal had the lowest ERA (Earned Run Average) of any pitcher in all of New York City for AA schools. He and Coach DeJesus were there to accept this great honor and plaque.
CC will graduate this year and pitch in college next year. Cristobal has been an outstanding student and athlete throughout his career. Congrats CC!
Congratulations to the CHAH Girl’s Softball team for winning the league title!

Congrats to Coach Aronson and the team for another great season!
The Boys Basketball team made their annual trip to Fordham for their prestigious, invite-only camp. Starting June 3rd all the way through June 7th, the team played some of the top teams from the Tri-State area. In addition to games, the team listened to lectures from Division 1, 2 and 3 coaches from across the country.
Thanks again to the Fordham Rams for having us! We look forward to next year!
Last week, several CHAH students in the Junior Achievement program visited the offices of the tech firm Digitas NY in downtown NYC. Digitas NY makes connections between brands and people using a five-pronged approach: data, technology, media, creativity, and strategy.
CHAH students were greeted with breakfast and listened to a presentation about the role Digitas NY plays as a global advertising and marketing firm. Students asked questions about how to get into marketing and advertising, got some help with their resumes, and learned about the importance of online marketing and how data is used to make strategic decisions.
This past week, CHAH students worked with financial lawyers from Citi Bank through a program called Junior Achievement. The finance folks taught the kids about proper budgeting, the differences between good and bad debt, and how to create and manage savings and checking accounts. Important life skills for the 21st Century!
Students also worked in groups to create public service announcements on financial topics. Some creative PSAs were shared!
