What is the Annual Giving Campaign?
The Annual Giving Campaign is made up of yearly gifts from parents, faculty and staff, the Board of Trustees, grandparents, alumni, and friends of the school. Each year is a separate drive designed to meet the operating needs of the current year. We are asking for 100% participation from every CCDS family! No donation is too small.

Kindergarten families are at 47% participation! Thank you!

ERB Test Scores Will Be Sent Home on May 15, 2018

Recently all 3rd-8th grade CCDS students took the Comprehensive Testing Program Test. This test is published by Educational Records Bureau (ERB). 
CCDS uses the ERB to improve curriculum, teaching, and learning through diagnosis of assessment results that address essential learning standards.
Parents are always eager to see how their children scored on these tests. CCDS will distribute the ERB Test scores on May 15th to all families whose accounts are paid in full . Please contact the business office regarding the balance on your account.


On Wednesday, May 16, 2018, at 8:30 a.m. Mr. Brown will be holding a Zoom Video session on ERB score interpretation in place of the Coffee with Mike. This session will also be recorded for those who cannot log in by video or telephone. You can join this session from PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android at https://zoom.us/j/253352656
