CAS Book Club is BACK!
Your donation will purchase library quality books, with a special binding, in the genre/category of your choice. Once the books arrive, Mr. Paradiso will invite your child/children to choose a book in their requested category. A special label stating that this book was donated in honor of your family or child/children will be placed inside the book’s cover. Your child/children will then have the opportunity to be the first one to check that book out of the library.
To participate, visit caspto.com and check out the flyer below for more details!

COURTYARD READING GARDEN
Did you know that CAS has a courtyard? Unfortunately, during the COVID shutdown, our beautiful courtyard reading garden fell into disrepair. This year, the PTO will be working with the building to revitalize and rebuild this outdoor learning space for our children to enjoy. Our landscaping quotes are rolling in as we speak and soon we will be able to announce the grand plan and fundraising goals!
We are so excited to have parent volunteers back in the building! There are all sorts of ways you can volunteer to help, here are our immediate needs:
Family Fit & FUN with CrossFit377 Event Chairs
Show off a strong healthy heart to your kids and have a ton of fun! This is not your typical Crossfit class! All fitness levels and abilities are welcome. This event is super fun and a great confidence builder for the kids (and parents). We are looking for 2-3 event chairs to order goodies, liaise with CrossFit 377, manage registration and more for this March 3rd event. No fitness experience required, but MUST be willing to have fun! If you are interested, please email CASPTO@gmail.com to let us know!
FunFest Chairs
Do you love yard games, cotton candy and children’s laughter?! Then this role is for you! Looking for 1-2 additional chairs to join this amazing team! You will coordinate food trucks, work with inflatable slide and cotton candy vendor, organize volunteers, plan yard games and more. Planning starts in February for this May 19 event. If you are interested, please email CASPTO@gmail.com to let us know!
