CEREAL BRACKET 2025 CHALLENGE WINNER
Throughout the month of March, CHS has celebrated its own "March Madness" by holding the first ever "Cereal Bracket Challenge". Students were asked to bring their A-game to the breakfast table and decide which cereal reigns supreme!
Each week, students have casted their votes to determine which cereals would advance to the next round. Will the classics dominate or will an underdog surprise us all?
In the end, only one cereal was able to claim the title of CHS Breakfast Champion!
Our final four flavor match-ups are: FRUITY PEPPLES vs. CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH and FROSTED FLAKES vs. FRUIT LOOPS.
At the end of this week, we will determine the Championship Round and our winner will be decided the Week of April 7.
