Kim Vincent, International Admissions Director

Who do you know in these amazing cities?  Our International Program team will be heading to Tokyo, Seoul and Shanghai in two weeks to visit with prospective families and groups who may be interested in CHCA.  If you know someone we could connect with, please send their information our way!  We’d love to meet and share with them all that CHCA has to offer students who wish to study abroad.  For additional information, please contact todd.bacon@chca-oh.org or kim.vincent@chca-oh.org.


Jana Braden, Natalie McSwain, Leigh Wilkins, PTF Spiritual Life Team

Please join The CHCA Parent Teacher Fellowship in a focused month of prayer for CHCA. From 03/01/18 - 03/31/18, please go to www.chca-oh.org/31Days for the guide and pray for the item listed each day of the month. Consider continuing to use this guide each month after, as it will not lose its relevance.


Tammy Rosenfeldt

Word-of-mouth is the number one reason new families come to CHCA. There are lots of ways we can share our CHCA experience with friends and families. (1) invite them to our upcoming Open House on 02/24/18 from 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. (2) like CHCA on Facebook and give us a great review! (3) give us great reviews on other sites such as Google and Niche. (4) refer someone you think would be a great fit for CHCA. Because you referred them, we waive the application fee if they choose to apply. If they enroll a student and list you as their referral at time of enrollment, you receive a $500 tuition credit on your '18-'19 tuition bill! Learn more on our shareCHCA page.

What a great opportunity for us to ShareCHCA


Tammy Rosenfeldt

Please consider volunteering with us for Open House at the North Campus and Armleder on Saturday, 02/24/18 from 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. A variety of volunteer roles are needed and there is a place for everyone to join in the fun! Hospitality, greeters, and tour guides are all needed. Together we can introduce CHCA to the many students and their families who will visit the campus for Open House. Come share in the fun! Please email Tammy Rosenfeldt to volunteer.

Would you consider placing an Open House sign in your yard to help spread the word about our Open House on Saturday, 02/24/18 from 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.? A visual reminder is a great way to welcome new families to explore CHCA! Pick up a yard sign at the front desk of your student's building. If you have any questions, you may email Tammy Rosenfeldt.
