We are currently planning to bring back the tradition of sending our 8th graders on a trip to Washington D.C. and New York City in May of 2023. We will host an informational night on Wednesday, October 5th, from 5:30-6:30 in our innovation space. If you are interested in sending your student on the trip in the spring, please plan on attending this event.

Please reach out to Dakota Mahan with any questions.

See you there!

Parents, each year we put together a slideshow video of our 8th graders and show it at graduation. We are asking that you please fill out this form in order to submit a baby/young child photo of your 8th grader and a current photo of them to be shared at graduation. If you have any questions, please contact Rachel Brooks at rbrooks@cherrycreekacademy.org.

As a part of our Veterans Day Assembly, scheduled for November 11, 2022 at 8 am, we would like to honor the brave people in our community who have served or are currently serving in the military. To include a member of the military to be honored during our assembly please share their name and the branch of the military they served in or are currently serving in, an optional picture, and bio or information about their time serving in the link below.

Students are encouraged to wear RED CCA uniform shirts to highlight being healthy (for our elementary students) and to highlight our commitment to being substance-free (for our middle school students). Middle school students will also have the opportunity to add their signature to the wall as a commitment that they will stay substance-free.

Students have the option to wear BRIGHT ACCESSORIES (including socks) to bring focus to cultivating kindness. Students will have the opportunity to visit with Fitz and her fellow therapy dogs over lunch and lunch recess.

Join us for a DANCE PARTY and FRESH FRUIT in the front parking lot from 7:20-7:55am to start the day off with some exercise, healthy eating, and good friends.

Students will receive NEW UNITY T-SHIRTS (thanks to our amazing PTO) to wear to the first Eagle Honors assembly of the year as a visual reminder that we’re stronger together (please wear CCA uniform bottoms).

Students get a FREE DRESS DAY because rest is an important part of wellness. The Fly Like an Eagle Committee will also be sending a “smile” to each student and staff today!
*As always, all free dress must follow CCA dress code.

We'd love help and support from our CCA families to make all this happen! There are several donation opportunities (which count towards volunteer hours). If you’re interested, please sign up here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/508084EA9A72CA6FF2-redribbon

CCA is working on introducing a new club: National Junior Honor Society. NJHS elevates a school’s commitment to the values of scholarship, service, leadership, character, and citizenship, the five pillars of the organization.

If you are interested in this new club, please email Khloe Karikari (kkarikari@cherrycreekacademy.org), Mr. Leins (zleins@cherrycreekacademy.org), or Mr. Mahan (dmahan@cherrycreekacademy.org).
