Lost and Found Being Donated Soon!
Lost and found will be donated at the end of day on Wednesday, May 24, 2023. Please make sure you look through the items in lost and found one more time to make sure none of them are yours before they are donated.
Thank you to our entire community for a fantastic Fun Run! We had so many generous sponsors and family donors. We raised $28356 which will go to improving our lunch room with new seating options. Because we were SO CLOSE to our goal, Run4Funds is generously offering the inflatable party to our participating students. If your child is participating in Prize Day tomorrow, they must have a signed waiver on file. Fill it out here: https://r4funds.com/schools/ccarun23/waiver/
Be Prepared for Next year!
PTO Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast
Thank you to the following people who have completed the required 40 hours per family (or 20 hours for single parent families) of volunteer time to CCA for the 2022-23 school year. This list is based on the number of hours recorded online. These hours are a minimum requirement, and is a part of the contract that was signed by all families attending Cherry Creek Academy. Last Friday, the PTO honored the volunteers who had reached their volunteer hour requirement of 40 hours by providing them with a breakfast in the cafeteria. There was even a drawing for some wonderful prizes!
