Tabar Talks
Welcome to a Tuesday version of the much anticipated “Tabar Talks”. As we prepare for a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, it is important to remember everyone and everything we are grateful for. Corpus Christi Academy is truly grateful for a wonderful, supportive, and collaborative school family. A family that includes the students, families, teachers, staff, and parishes that provide all of the unique qualities that make CCA so special. We are also very thankful for the students and parent chaperones that are able to venture to Fun 'n’ Stuff as a reward for our Cookie Dough/Magazine Drive sponsored by PTG. Most importantly, we want to thank our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for providing for us and our community all we could ever need and more. HAVE A HAPPY AND SAFE THANKSGIVING CORPUS CHRISTI ACADEMY!
Sincerely,
Mr. Matthew Tabar | CCA Principal

Shoe Collection Drive
The American Heritage Girls are starting their bi-annual Shoe Collection Drive. By cleaning out your closets, you can help support our Troop and help others in developing countries by repurposing your shoes. Our goal is 2,500 pairs of shoes by January 18th. We are looking for new or gentle used shoes (all kinds, adults, kids, boots, sandals, high heels).
There will be a collection box by the St. Clare Statue in the school. Please bring your donated shoes to the school and place them in the box. We appreciate all your help to get us to our goal. If there are any questions, please contact Christy Raynor at (440) 684-0549. Thank you for your support.
