As part of our safety plan, please have your pick-up tags displayed for our staff to see while waiting in the carpool line. We would also like to remind you that crosswalks need to remain clear of vehicles at all times, especially during drop-off and pick-up. Please know that cars should not be turning until pedestrians have stepped onto the sidewalk on the other side. It is also important that we are courteous to our neighbors and do not block their driveways. And finally, it is vitally important that there are no cell phones being used during carpool.

On September 13th, CCA will have Fly like an Eagle Day. This days is
designed to build and foster teamwork, respect, and a sense of community throughout our school. Each classroom will be paired with another classroom, and together they will work alongside one another to complete various team-building challenges.
Fly Like an Eagle Day is a FREE DRESS DAY! Athletic attire is highly recommended. Please remember the school dress code still applies.
CCA's PTO will graciously provide lunch for the entire school. Cheese pizza, carrots and ranch, and an allergy-friendly dessert will be available for the students during their regular lunch time. No other lunch options will be available for purchase through Wholesome Foods/Mile High Catering, so please pack a lunch for your child if they choose not to eat pizza. A separate announcement will be forthcoming with nutritional/ingredient information of the menu.
The Fly Like An Eagle Committee needs your help to make this fun team-building day a success! Volunteer opportunities for this event include helping prepare materials prior to the event, and opportunities helping the day of the event. Please click

It was another awesome week at CCA. 2nd graders traveled all over the world in the "Earth Balloon," an annual Common Core event that extends their landforms unit. 4th graders created word bubbles using the letters in their name. 7th graders are learning how to create interesting hooks that draw readers in. 5th & 6th graders are enjoying their weekly spanish lessons with Senora Hilbert. Student Council voted in there official members, and students are enjoying the many ways that CCA has integrated technology into our curriculum. Please look in the upcoming technology newsletters from Mrs. Sandler and Mrs. Shepperd for information on resources students can use at home to help build their typing and other computer skills.
