Additionally, history teacher Christian Altena, regularly plans bicycle excursions on the Great Allegheney Passage (GAP) cycling from Pennsylvania to Washington D.C., making stops at important historical sites along the way.

• Intramurals

  Our Student Council hosts an Intramural Sports Tournament each quarter.  Each tournament is a week long event during our community lunch time.  Not athletic?  Don't worry - the games rotate through various sports and have included chess, a bean bag toss and badminton in addition to traditional sports. The purpose is to have fun and build community!

• Mock Trial

  Where the courtroom meets the stage … as a member of this club, you’ll compete using case materials to build arguments and present a legal case before actual attorneys and judges. Each year, Illinois assigns one case – recently they have involved bullying and murder. You will compete against teams across the state all while sharpening your critical thinking, public speaking, and acting skills. Will you be a lawyer or a witness? In the last six years, Chicago Christian has won 3rd place in state twice, and placed in the top 8 four times.

• Scholastic Bowl

  Our team holds the 2019 State Championship title and we are ranked 7th nationally!

  
  Scholastic Bowl is a fastpaced competition where teams of five players race to answer knowledge-based questions in all academic areas, but also current events including popular culture, sports and even video games.  Are you a mathlete? Or do you know the lyrics to every song?  Scholastic Bowl may be just right for you.  Scholastic Bowl is a year-long IHSA activity for men and women.  The CCHS Scholastic Bowl team are the Metro Suburban champions two years running and last season we won the 1A State title in a thrilling match in Peoria.

• Student Council

  Our goals include promoting a positive experience at Chicago Christian for all of our students, and helping to develop student leaders. We take our school mission seriously – being a Christ-centered learning community intent on restoring God’s world. We have elected sophomore, junior, and senior representatives. Our committees include: spiritual life, school spirit, mission/service, student activities, and public relations.
  

  
  All members take the Christian Leadership class where they grow in their understanding of the principals of leadership and their own giftedness.
