Ty Strong is the student of the month for the Class of 2027. Mrs. Ozman nominated Ty for going above and beyond. She said: “Ty sets a great example for what it means to be a student-athlete. He goes above and beyond every day, getting to class on time, never having his phone out during instructional time, taking his time on assignments, and ensuring that all his work is done to the absolute best of his ability. Ty is truly Colonel TOUGH.” While Ty has not yet decided what he wants to do after CRHS, he knows that his favorite class so far has been Gym with Mrs. Verdery. He says: “She is nice and she makes her class very fun.” In his opinion, obtaining your goals is the most important part of being TOUGH because it shows that you are trying and putting in effort.
FUN FACT: Ty has been playing soccer for 11 years!

Wilson Clough is the student of the month for the Class of 2025. Mrs. Smith sent in Wilson’s nomination for going above and beyond. She noted that “Wilson always has the highest of expectations for himself in class. Wilson went above and beyond & challenged himself on an assignment to create a periodic table of at least 15 items by designing a periodic table of musical instruments.” Wilson’s favorite class is Band because it gives him the “freedom” to play his instruments. After CRHS, Wilson wants to go to college for computer science and play in a college-level band! He has lots of thoughts on TOUGH-ness: “To me, being TOUGH is as simple as doing a good turn daily. It means that you are doing something just a little extra. To me, treating others with respect is most important.”
FUN FACT: Wilson plays over 60 instruments!
