Be on the lookout for a special BACK TO SCHOOL ISSUE of our family e-newsletter.

It will be your one stop shop for all things back to school. It will hit your inbox on Friday! 😀

Join us for fun and games at the Back to School Bash held INDOORS at the CCHS Cafeteria tonight! The event is from 5:30 to 8:00 pm. Every campus will have a booth, and you'll be able to meet staff and earn prizes. We also have some fun entertainment planned in the gym!

Elementary students (PK-5) will have the opportunity to register for FREE school supplies delivered to your child's campus. Secondary students (6-12) will have the opportunity to register to have their BOOTUP 1:1 fee of $25 paid. The supplies and BOOTUP fees are available on a first-come, first-serve basis while supplies and funding lasts.
