SENIOR LEGACY GIFT Commemorating Chamblee High School is a proud tradition of the Senior Class. This year, with your help, we will continue our Senior Class Legacy by bestowing a gift to the school in honor of the Class of 2023. The Class of 2008 began our beautification projects with the commitment of making our school campus more welcoming, attractive, and informative. You can view a list of all the previous Senior legacy projects on the Blue & Gold website.
The Class of 2023, along with The Blue & Gold Foundation, would like to purchase additional indoor coated entry mats for several doors into CHS. These mats are custom designed with our Bulldog logo and will say “Class of 2023” on them. You can follow this link to view them, or many of you may have seen the mats we have currently in place throughout the school. https://www.hurleymat.com/hurley-luxo-link-vinyl-mat
See the attached letter for details or visit the Blue & Gold Foundation website. Donations of any amount are greatly appreciated in order to make this project a success! All donations to the Blue & Gold Foundation, a 501c3 non profit are tax deductible. Thank you in advance for your support and congratulations to the Class of 2023!

Boys The Men's soccer team won their second playoff game this past Tuesday against the Greenbrier Wolfpack. In the first half, the Bulldogs went down early but came back quickly. The Dogs earned back possession and scored 3 goals in about 5 mins. Goals were scored by Travis Connor, Daniel Chavez, and Mario Hernandez. This shocked Greenbrier going into half-time. The second half started slow with the Bulldogs dominating possession but then a very exciting Grant Polk goal iced the game away with a 4-1 lead. The Chamblee Bulldogs play again in the quarter-finals of the playoffs on Tuesday in Dalton against the Catamounts at 6:30.
Go Bulldogs!

SWIM & DIVE We hope you are excited about the 2023-2024 school year at Chamblee High School. Our boys team finished this season as County Champions and State Runner-Up while the girls were County Runner-Up and finished 4th at State. The swimming and diving season for 9th through 12th grade (no 8th grade) runs from mid-October through early February. Once again we compete against one of the most competitive schedules in the state-- see the first draft of the 2023-2024 meet schedule. Students elect whether to attend year-round club team practices, morning practices before school, or afternoon practices. All practices (and most meets) are held at our on-campus pool.
Our kickoff information meeting takes place in September-- we will publish more information in the CHS Bulldog Bulletin in the Fall.
To participate in high school sports you must get a new physical form completed on an official form each year and this physical must occur after April 1. Next year CHS will continue to use an online system (Dragonfly) for submitting the required physical and completing several online forms. We will send out more information about our September information meeting to the CCHS Bulldog Bulletin in the Fall.
