Color for 10 minutes!
Coloring can improve your mood, enhance your sleep, and improve your wellness.
WebMD explains color therapy can improve your wellness in the following ways:
- Red: stimulating and increases appetite
- Orange: improves mood and possible thyroid function
- Yellow: increases concentration and possibly treats arthritis
- Green: a calming color and may promote healthy metabolism
- Blue: suppresses the appetite and treats migraine pain

Graduation Spotlight Class of 2023
Week of December 19
Families have until December 31 to order the cap and gown unit before the price increases.
There are three ways to place an order:
online at jostens.com
mailing the order form and payment
calling 1.800.JOSTENS
If you are ONLY ordering the cap and gown unit, you do not have to pay the $11.95 handling fee indicated on the order form. Cap and gown units can also be ordered without any money down. I can take care of this at school for you.
If you are ordering other items with the cap and gown unit OR one of the packages, please include the handling fee when calculating the total cost. A deposit of at least $75 must be paid as well.
Cap and gown units and any stationery products will be delivered to the school. Clothing and jewelry will be delivered to your house.
If you have any questions or concerns about any of these activities, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs. France at france.bernadette@ccpsstaff.org.

Bullying, hazing, harassment, or other discrimination affecting a student or a staff member should be reported by a victim, parent/guardian, witness, staff member, or other person having knowledge. Staff members with knowledge of such conduct are required to promptly report it to the building principal.
