In order to maintain safety protocols given the COVID-19 pandemic, the following special procedures will apply:
•    Guests will be limited to current 8th graders and high school transfer students (current 9th-11th graders) and up to two parents/guardians (maximum of three persons per party). We hope to have another event later in the year for younger students.
•    All guests must pre-register for a specific time slot. Latecomers may be asked to join a later tour (depending on available openings). Walk-ins can only be accommodated as openings allow. 
•    All guests will be temperature-checked upon arrival (and will not be admitted if temperature exceeds 100.4.
•    All guests will be required to wear face coverings throughout their time in the building. 
•    Guests will receive a comprehensive overview, visit many parts of the school and campus, have some opportunities to interact (distanced) with students and faculty, and more. Each party will receive a schedule which lays out the school locations they will visit for short presentations at each location. CCH personnel will be present to direct each party from one location to the next. Guest are required to stay on this schedule, and to follow the directions for traveling hallways, etc., in order to not overcrowd or violate social distancing between groups.
•    However, the following “traditional” elements of the CCH Open House will not apply due to COVID-19 safety protocols:
o    CCH students will not lead tours.
o    No one may “self-guide” their visit/tour.
o    No refreshments will be provided
•    Guests should plan to be on campus for up to two hours. If you need to leave sooner, CCH personnel will help you get to an exit.
