| 40 Degree Policy |
Please make sure your child is dressed warmly for the cold weather. If the temperature is above 40 degrees (or feels like 40+), and it is not rainy or muddy, children will go out for recess and carline. Jackets, sweaters, hats, and gloves should all be marked with your student's name. |
| Mom's In Touch |

| Kroger Cards |
Did you know you can buy your groceries and CDS will get a portion of the sale? Purchase a Kroger card in the school office for $5.00. It is already loaded with $5.00, so it doesn't actually cost you anything. At Kroger, load the Kroger card with whatever amount you choose. The cashier will then scan your groceries and you will pay with your Kroger Card. It's that easy and you are not spending any money that you would not have already spent. Every time CDS spends $5,000, Kroger will cut us a check for 5%!
We are only $900 away from the $5,000 goal. |
| Spread the Word |
Registration for the 2010-11 school year has opened to the general public. Make sure you tell your friends, family, co-worker, etc. who are looking for affordable Christian education about CDS. For every new student who is accepted and attends CDS based on your referral, your family will receive $300 towards your CDS tuition. Referral forms and additional registration packets are available in the school office. |

| Hearts for Haiti |

The National Junior Honor Society raised over $800 selling "Hearts for Haiti." These specially-designed paper hearts were purchased by students to wish their classmates and friends a Happy Valentine's Day and bless them with God's Word. The money raised will be sent to Samaritan's Purse to help the Haitian people suffering from the disastrous earthquakes.
Cupid 2010
Each student who purchased a "Heart for Haiti" cast their vote for Cupid 2010. This year's winner was Central's Senior Pastor, Dr. Ernie Frey. Congratulations! |
