"Luciana is a student who shows integrity in all she does. She consistently does the right thing. She is on task, eager to learn, and models this for other students. She can be trusted to do what she is supposed to do in every situation (in the classroom, as a violin student, in the car rider line, in the hallway, cafeteria...everywhere!). Luciana is outstanding. I'm proud of her, and she is very deserving of recognition." #OneChatham #ElevateChatham

🎶 Chatham Central High School's Band has earned a Superior rating at the North Carolina Music Performance Adjudication (MPA)! Even more impressive, all four sub-ratings were 1s, the top score awarded in NC MPA.
This marks the first time in over 20 years that CCHS has participated in MPA, and may have received the first Superior rating in school history!
This incredible achievement reflects the hard work and dedication of 15 student musicians, along with the unwavering support of Dr. Wills, staff, and community members. Despite challenges along the way, their commitment to excellence and shared vision led them to this outstanding accomplishment. #OneChatham #ElevateChatham
