2023-2024 Theme : LEVEL UP !
“ For this reason , make every effort to add to your faith goodness ; and to goodness knowledge ; and to knowledge self-control ; and to self-control , perseverance ; and to perseverance , godliness ; and to godliness , mutual affection ; and to mutual affection , love ." 1 Peter 1:5-7
The 2023-2024 school-wide theme is LEVEL UP ! Through Jesus ’ righteousness , God gives to us divine power to be able to live godly lives ( 1 Peter 5:1-4 ). We serve a mighty God who understands our need for a Savior , so He personally comes to us and gives us the necessary tools and urges us to “ level up ” starting with faith in Jesus so that we can ultimately love as He does .
Thanks to the PTFA ( our Parent-Teacher-Friends Association ), each student is provided with a FREE theme shirt that is distributed to students the first day of school . Parents are encouraged to request the specific sizes they would like ordered for their children by CLICKING HERE ( or through the CCS app ), but all requests must be made by the evening of Wednesday , August 9 . The office will do its best to guess your child ’ s size after that date .
