Mr. Bell, valiant overseer of the CHS Webmaster team, has taught me for three years now. Each class with Mr. Bell has been incredibly fun and educational. Next year I will be studying computer science at Lehigh University, and I don't think this would have been possible without all that I've learned in room L320.
