Sophia Jiang, a CHMS 8th grader, won the 2025 "Join The Band" Student Poster Contest run annually by Quinlan & Fabish Music Company. Students across the Midwest submitted artwork. Her artwork will be showcased in three states!

“Her visual art skills are next level for a student her age.” – Mr. Eric Morong, CHMS Band Director

This is the second time in 3 years a CHMS student has won! In 2023, Eliana Cuttica was the winner.

 “This speaks volumes to the exceptional art teachers we have in Clarendon Hills. To have a student from your school win this award is a huge honor, but having two winners within two years of each other is a rarity,” said Eric Morong, CHMS band director.
