Elementary Parent Pick-up Procedures
CCS Families,
Thank you for your participation in the recent survey regarding pick-up procedures. In an attempt to find a solution that works for both staff and families, we have made some adjustments. Beginning Monday, October 23rd, the following changes will be in effect. These changes only apply to those coming into the school building to pick up their children. The car pick-up line procedure does not change.
- Students will remain in the classroom and have their backpacks ready by 3:00.
- Parents/Guardian may come to the classroom door and the student will be released to the parent/guardian at the classroom door.
- Daily summary and homework will be posted outside the classroom door on the provided board.
- Parents/Guardians will need to schedule an appointment with the teacher after 3:20 pm.
***All conferences need to be scheduled in advance so the teacher can be prepared and focused on you and your students' needs. 24 hour notice is suggested.
***All students who are not picked up by 3:20 pm will be sent to After Care. After care cost is $7.00 per day.
Thank you for your continued support and prayers over the school as we grow together.
Note from the Principal
Wow what a week! Mr. Wildey, Mr. Buterbaugh and I spent most of this week at a Biblical Worldview conference at the Creation Museum. The importance of teaching the Truth of God’s word was the focus of the conference. We heard several great speakers who presented us with insight into how we need to be integrating the biblical worldview into each of our subjects.
The most challenging question of the week was “Why do we (CCS) exist?” The second most challenging question was “What does academic excellence look like in a Christian School like CCS?” We all need to look at ourselves and CCS and figure out the answers to those questions as a group (students, staff, and families). This can be a very challenging time for CCS, but also a very exciting time!
I am very excited to see where we are headed and how we can continue to improve in our academic excellence through a biblical worldview. God is good all the time and He will bless us as we continue to teach His truth.
Blessings,
Mrs. Donnell
