Do You Want to Keep Up With Chamblee Charter High School?
The Blue and Gold is your source!!

When I was a student at Chamblee High School, many, many, many years ago, we all looked forward to the weekly publication of The Blue and Gold Newspaper.  There were times the CHS administration was not so thrilled with some of the articles that appeared in the newspaper. Yes, even back in the 70's, the student staff of The Blue and Gold was not shy about delving into controversial topics -  administration miscues, men's hair length, war, smoking in the bathrooms, smoking in the courtyard, streakers and so on and so on.  But, as far as I know,  there was never an attempt to silence the student writers.

Today, The Blue and Gold remains a quality student-run newspaper.  You can access the current issue of The Blue and Gold at the following link:  https://chambleeblueandgold.com/

I especially enjoyed reading about the introduction of the new STAR period.


Welcoming STAR Period to the Chamblee Schedule

Chamblee Charter High School is known for being stressful. Students take hard courses and involve themselves with as many extracurriculars as possible, leaving little time for homework and relaxation. This year, however, Chamblee hopes to alleviate some of the stress by creating STAR period, a 20-minute study hall between third and fourth period.
