Every school day, CHS students are transported to or from school either by bus or car. CHS runs a fleet of about 20 buses to transport bus riders from both CHS and CMS to thier homes. Each bus runs on either gasoline or diesel and most buses are more than 15 years old, making thier emissions high. The Clean Fuel initiative, sponsored by CHS EcoAction (http://chs.ecoactiononline.org) will work to change our current transportation. This will include converting diesel buses to run on biodiesel, made from the school's old vegatable oil, and adding emission control devices to existing gasoline buses. We will also begin a fundraiser to raise money to purchase a hybrid or electric school bus. More information to come!
