CCS Annual Fundraisers:

Students are asked to seek donations for the Walk-A-Thon. Students have the opportunity to earn individual prizes while seeking donations. The class that collectively raises the most money will enjoy a Movie and Sweet Treat Party!

Our Golf Scramble tees off at 8:00am on Saturday, September 17, 2022. The entry fee for individual golfers is $50 or $200 per team (4 players). Prizes will be awarded to teams placing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Awards will also be given to those who have the longest drive, longest putt, and closest to the pin. We will be having a Silent Auction.
These events work together to be our biggest fundraisers for CCS. Proceeds will be used for our Building Expansion. Please check your student's backpack; packets and additional information have been sent home.
Feel free to contact the CCS Office for brochures/flyers to share with friends, family, and co-workers.



First Grade has been learning all about God’s power and goodness through His creation. They worked hard to create a mural showing the many blessings God spoke into being.
In Art, CCS Students started learning about Vincent Van Gogh, making sunflower artwork!





Crusader Athletics have started! Want to be in on all the action? Check out the link below for team schedules!
Did you know...?
...our Athletics programming at CCS is self-funded? Crusader coaches and staff are volunteers! Here is what that means for all of us...
- Each year, our Athletic Department requires $68,000-$72,000 to cover costs for things like: referees/officials, equipment/maintenance, uniforms, tournament entry fees, off-campus facilities, athlete awards, etc.
- Participation in athletics is FREE for all CCS students. We can offer this because of our on- and off-campus fundraising efforts…staffed by you!
- Each athletic family is required to volunteer for a total of 6 athletic events, one volunteer fundraising day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Indiana University Home Football Games.
If your student is participating in ANY sport this year (volleyball, basketball, mini-cheerleading, cheerleading, baseball, or softball), we need your help to staff our concessions and admissions stations during the Fall and Winter months. Please consider volunteering during another team's game, so all Crusader families have the opportunity to see their favorite athlete compete.
In an attempt to streamline this process, we have created a sign-up for all of our scheduled home events to date (volleyball and basketball). Please note: These dates are subject to adjustment/change based on team and facility availability, weather etc. When you have signed up, you will be notified automatically, should your shift change.

Sincerely,
