(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school is a great school to attend if you are an athlete. I had a 3.7 GPA. Was in the future leaders of america, national honor society, and took care of my bed ridden father throughout high school. Not once during my years attending CFHS did a guidance counselor speak to me about my future, but everyone in sports had a plan set out for college. I was left in the dark when it came to life after high school. Thanks to them I worked one dead end job after another and gave up on my dreams. I am now 26 years old and am trying to support my family and prepare to start school in the fall, something that I should have had the "privelage" of doing 9 years ago. To all parents thinking of sending your children to CFHS think about their futures, because the staff of incompetants there will not.
