OPEN HOUSE
The Christ the King H.S. Open House was held on Saturday, October 2nd. It was our pleasure to host this event for prospective students to experience all CK has to offer.

Thank you to the faculty, staff, and students for their informative presentations and time given to share how wonderful being part of the CK family really is!

A second open house will be held by reservation on Wednesday, November 3rd, 6pm - 8pm.
WALK-A-THON
The CK Campus was filled with school spirit this past Monday! At our annual CK Walk-A-Thon our students raised over $14,000 dollars for various clubs and school projects. Our marching band energetically led the students around the campus. Students also participated in the CK color walk battle, pie throwing contests, and a visit from Mister Softy!
ZSPACE
Ms. Hollingsworth's Pre-Calculus Honors Class worked in our brand new Zspace this week. Students were asked to identify types of professionals who work with fractional parts, dimensions, and areas to complete their jobs daily. The class chose an architectural project. They worked in teams to create their own amusement parks. They applied topics such as fractional parts, partitions, whole numbers, dimensions, and area in a one-of-a-kind learning experience!

WEST POINT
On Thursday, Christ the King Senior Julianna Laguna took The Candidate Fitness Assessment. The Candidate Fitness Assessment (CFA) was developed to measure and evaluate a candidate's potential to successfully complete the physical programs at the United States Naval Academy, United States Air Force Academy, and United States Military Academy.

The CFA consists of six physical and motor fitness events that are designed to measure muscular strength and endurance, cardio-respiratory endurance, power, balance, and agility. When administered together as a single battery, these six events will help the Admissions Board determine if a candidate possesses the stamina and movement skills required to successfully complete the physical program and perform the duties required of commissioned officers in the uniformed services.

The six test events of the CFA are administered consecutively in less than a 40-minute time period. The CFA is an important component of the admissions process at each Service Academy and is used to determine if candidates can meet the physical rigors of military life. The test must be administered properly and standardized in order to accurately reflect a student's physical and motor fitness and to be fair to all candidates.

Julianna is applying to the United States Military Academy at West Point.

Good Luck Julianna!
