Looking for Youth Sports Info? Start Here!
With the start of the spring sports season, we’re getting a lot of questions about youth sports teams—and we’re excited to see so many families getting involved!
If you’re looking for details about your child’s team, registration status, or schedule, the best way to get accurate information is by contacting the appropriate youth sports organization directly.
Please don’t call the school—our staff is unable to answer specific questions about youth sports programs. These teams are run by local organizations, not the school district.
Not sure who to contact? We’ve got you covered! Visit our website for a list of youth sports leagues in the Chippewa Hills area and their contact information:

Are you missing alerts from the CHSD app? Here’s how to fix it!
We’ve heard from some of you who aren’t receiving notifications from the CHSD app. The good news? It’s usually a simple fix! Most of the time, the issue comes down to phone settings or outdated software – not the app itself.
To ensure you’re staying informed with school updates, follow these quick steps:
✅ Check Your Phone’s Software – An outdated system can block notifications
✅ Enable Notifications for the CHSD App – Make sure the CHSD app has alerts turned on!
✅ Check Your In-App Notification Preferences – Double-check that you’re subscribed to the right schools and groups
✅ Make Sure You’re Receiving Rooms Notifications: If your teacher, coach, or advisor is using Rooms, you’ll get app notifications whenever they post – but only if notifications are enabled!
✅ Restart Your Phone – A simple restart can refresh your app connections and fix notification issues
✅ Reinstall the CHSD App – Try uninstalling and reinstalling the CHSD app to refresh your settings.
You can read the full troubleshooting guide here: https://www.chsd.us/article/2096668
Thanks for using the CHSD app to stay connected with everything happening at Chippewa Hills!
