Umbrella/Tuition Payments
We apologize for the delay in sending out our billing statements. Please know that no payment is late—this delay is entirely on our end due to some set-up and connection issues. Your first payment will be due on September 15th. We appreciate your grace as we get everything in order.
School Picture Day – September 15th
Homeschool students may have their photos taken between 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m.
Arrival & Security
-
Please enter through the Gathering Space (the weekday entrance).
-
All parents must go through security. Have your driver’s license ready.
Forms
-
Please complete a separate form HERE for each student before picture day.
- Students must be registered in order to have their photos taken.
- These photos are for your use only. Homeschool umbrella students will not be in the CCS yearbook. With the number of students we have, the cost rises A LOT. Therefore we are pursuing other options.
Seniors
If you plan to participate in graduation, you must have a formal graduation photo.
The make-up day for senior portraits will be 7:30 a.m. on 9/15/26 in the Chapel. Please make sure your senior is on time so that this can be completed before the start of school. Girls should wear a camisole shirt underneath their school uniform that can easily be adjusted for the formal drape photo. Boys should wear a plain white shirt underneath their uniform for their formal tux photo.
There is a $35 sitting fee that can be paid at the time of portraits with a card or cash.
Annual Counselor Meeting Requirement - 9th - 12th students ONLY
All high school students and their parents are required to meet with the high school counselor once per year.
