Hello CCS Families,
First, we must congratulate all our CCS students for doing such an incredible job in “The Wizard of Oz” production!!! The acting, the singing, the costumes, the props, the sets...wow! Just wow! We are so very proud of all of you. Thank you to the many people who gave of their time to make the show a success. Of course, a HUGE thank you to Mrs. Olson for all her work and for building a love of the performing arts in our students! (Head to the end of the newsletter for pictures!)
Congratulations to our Cross-Country team for their amazing work at this week’s meet. Several of our athletes won medals, and every one of our athletes made us proud for their amazing efforts!
Finally, the Mileage Club has been the talk of the school this week again. Many of the students have reached the 5, 10, and even the 15 mile mark, and the school as a whole has completed 806 miles. Keep it up so that you can reach your goal and attend the Mileage Club Party!
“Run in such a way as to get the prize.” (1 Corinthians 9:24)

May Lunch News
Today was our first ice cream sale.

We have two dates left: May 12th, and May 19th
All proceeds will be donated to Whisk & Ivy, who support students in Thailand through their ministry, The Ivy Table. You can explore more about this wonderful ministry here.

Mileage Club
Students continue their journey across America!
As of this morning, students have run their way to Baninbridge, Georgia! Our official mileage total is 806!
We now have a total of 79 students who have reached the 5-mile mark, 30 students who have reached the 10-mile mark, and 10 students who have reached the 15-mile mark!
For every 5 miles, students will continue to receive toe-tokens during chapel each week.
Come on in and stop by the Library window to check out our Mileage Club display!
Cross Country News
The results are in....
Our team had another great showing at the cross country meet last night!
On Varsity, we had two runners place 2nd: Abby G. and Caleb W.
On JV, we had two runners place: Ben A. placed 3rd and Micah W. placed 4th.
To put this into context, there are approximately 25 varsity and 25 JV runners that our students run against each week.
Congratulations to our whole team for doing such a great job each week!!
Our next meet is going to be Thursday, May 18th and we will be hosting this meet! We'd love to have as many supporters out there as possible, so c'mon out!!
