KUDOS
Kudos to CIS for reauthorization of our Charter by the APS Board for 5 more years. Many members of the APS Board of Education made positive statements about CIS!
Kudos to our championship boys' basketball team, their talented coach and dedicated parents for taking 1st Place in the Charter School League. Yay! What I love about our sports teams is that all students are welcome and they all have an opportunity to play. Make sure you congratulate the boys and Mr. Volpe when you see them for a great season!
Kudos to our amazing music teacher, Mrs. Robyn Clarke for putting on such an amazing program at our Winter Concert. Every year, the performances become more, and more impressive. Thank you Mrs. Clarke!
Kudos to Tammy Spatz for all her hard work and dedication to our school and this event.
