People say that your years in high school are some of the most memorable years of your life. That being said, it’s important to reflect on those memories and attributes that your high school experience have given you. With its very distinct traditions, Carmel High School has left many positive marks on the students who have passed through its doors that they will always carry with them. Here are 20 signs you went to Carmel High School!
With over 5,000 people attending CHS, you realized that finding your niche isn’t as difficult as it may seem!
Thanks to having to power walk and shove your body through tiny nooks and crannies during passing periods, any large crowd shouldn’t be an issue for you.
At CHS, there is a very high chance that there was someone in each of your classes that you had never met before. Because of this skill set, meeting new people in college is much less intimidating.
There’s a reason they call Indiana University “Carmel South”.
Ahh, yes, the Carmel Cafe.
30 Women’s Swimming State Championships in a row? No big deal.
Who could forget CHS’s award-winning marching band, show choirs, orchestras, and theatre department?
During your time at CHS, your counselor most likely convinced you to take at least one AP/IB class or maybe 8-12 of them. Either way, the exposure to college course work as a high school student has set you up for success in college.
Walking up the dreaded trail every day, rain or shine, has prepared you for trekking around campus.
Anyone who has ever gone to CHS knows that, for some odd reason, there’s always a major construction project going on. Luckily, knowing your whereabouts has saved you from being late to school.
I mean, one would hope that you would be, considering Carmel is the roundabout capital of the United States.
Don’t they have these things everywhere?
We all know the frustration of having a super close friend who lives on the other side of town. *shakes fists in indignation* Curse you, East/West Side! Now all of your best friends are within a one-mile radius of one another!
Who doesn’t love these adorable little creatures?
An iconic memory is the King himself. He was always there shaking your hand as you walked across the school to get to class. With a warm smile and a booming voice, this retired principal of CHS will always hold a special place in your heart
You most likely went to one of them.
And it feels pretty great to have had that experience.
“CHS is Great” and it always will be, but your years at CHS have transformed you into an individual who realizes that you are not meant to change the world in your high school. You’re meant to make the world a better place beyond the halls of CHS, and you know you’ve been given the skills to get the job done.
