Fostering Responsibility
Corpus Christi Catholic School prepares our students to be 21st century leaders and learners. In an effort to foster responsibility in our students, we are requesting that homework/assignments, lunches and/or sports uniforms not be delivered to the office throughout the day. Please note that emergency lunches will be served and billed to your Sami’s Catering lunch account if needed. Teachers assist in facilitating this responsibility by encouraging scholars to prepare their belongings at night, so that everything is ready to go in the morning. Working as a team in raising children, parents we are asking for your help in reinforcing this practice. Together, we can develop independent children who will grow into independent adults.

The Fund for Corpus Christi Catholic School
NEWS FLASH!!
We are excited to share with you that as of today, The Fund for Corpus Christi is hitting the halfway mark with $24,205 received plus $4,650 in pledges towards reaching our $50,000 Match Challenge.
For those how have already sent in your donation or pledge, CCCS thanks you!
Why donate? Why participate?
- The Fund helps the school keep tuition at an affordable rate, provides for teacher benefits and research-based training, and allows the school to maintain and update facilities and technology.
- The success of The Fund is directly attributed to having 100 percent family participation for each class. CCCS is able to more fully participate in granting opportunities when we demonstrate that our parent community goes above and beyond to invest in the CCCS mission. Potential grantors look for this commitment when they consider applications because they want to partner with the community to ensure their money is used in a very meaningful and impactful way. Congratulations to the CCCS faculty and staff for reaching 100% participation!
- Run with the Colts! Your donation or pledge made by December 31, 2019 will be matched by DeeDee and Gilbert Garcia. This generous matching will apply up to $50,000. This is an incredible opportunity for you to double the impact of your gift or pledge.
- Does your employer match your charitable contributions? If so, your donation could have an even greater impact!
Please prayerfully consider what you can contribute to the fund. Donating is easy, donate online www.corpuschristihouston.org or fill out your pledge card and send your payment or pledge to the school office.
