Grandparents Day—One of the best days of the year! We love having all of the grandparents here.
and into the early evening. We are looking for a few people who love to throw pots and have the know-how to do it. We would also love hand-built pottery if you have a knack for that instead of using the pottery wheels. This is open to parents, students, and friends of the school. If you have questions about this event, contact Mrs. Burke at

ELEMENTARY MARCH MADNESS SCORES BIG! Our CCS pre-K through fifth grades are bouncing 230 books to Honduras! Yes, you read that correctly! 230 books!! Our elementary program had a book drive for a recent CCS graduate/now elementary teacher, Kaitlyn Kurtz. Miss Kurtz is currently teaching first and second grades at a bilingual Christian elementary school, Comunidad Educativa Evangelica, in Singuatepeque, Honduras. She has shared with CCS that they are in definite need of reading books in English throughout the elementary program, but their funds are very limited. Here at CCS God has blessed us with many resources, including multiple copies of leveled books for each grade level. With God's leading, we set out to help provide some of the same kinds of resources for our brothers and sisters in Honduras, and WITH GOD WE DID! WHOOP! WHOOP! Thank you for all your support! You are all WINNERS! WHOOP! WHOOP! ~ Love, Mrs. Brenner
