BURGERVILLE FOOD & FELLOWSHIP -
Save the Date! Our favorite Food & Fellowship event is coming - Burgerville! Join us on Tuesday, May 17th. More details to follow....
AMERICAN REVOLUTION LIVING HISTORY MUSEUM A HUGE SUCCESS!
REMINDER PARENTS AND STUDENTS -
As the weather warms up, we want to remind you to be mindful of our school dress code. This dress code was created with the goal to honor the Lord, establish the best possible setting and atmosphere for a quality Christian education, and represent CCA favorably in our community as a witness for our Lord. The following are of special concern in this warm weather, as we have been experiencing issues on a daily basis:
1. Shorts, skirts & dresses no more than 3" above knee.
2. Shoulders & midriff must be covered at all times - No sleeveless, backless, low cut, or spaghetti strap
tops or dresses.
3. No flip-flops or slippers.
LIONPALOOZA -
Our annual Year End Extravaganza is being planned now! We sure could use your help! There are many volunteer opportunities available... from ticket sales to food service to game supervision and everything in between. There is a spot for you! To entice you... if you sign on to help, we will cover your 3rd Trimester Service Hours! How about that? Just let Mr. Hoff know you are interested by email or by calling him at 256-9715.
LIONPALOOZA -
7th and 8th grade students - we could use your help at Lionpalooza too! If you would like to get your 3rd Trimester Community Service hours taken care of, see Mrs. Pesacreta
NEW BUS DRIVER - BRUCE WASHBURN -
Mrs. Dean, our Middle School bus driver, is taking a much needed vacation! So, for the month of May, Mr. Washburn will be re-joining the CCA Family. We say re-joining, because Mr. Washburn was a CCA parent for many years; his two sons are CCA Alumni! In fact, his son Adam teaches our MS Worship elective. Welcome aboard Mr. Washburn!
DRUM AND PIANO LESSONS!
Mr. Wise has time slots open for Drum and Piano lessons, as well as private tutoring. Please email him for specifics or visit his website for more information!

International Student Program Host Family Opportunities

Please mark your calendar's and let us know if you would like to host 1-4 students or if your middle school students would like to be a delegate for the program. We don't have the total of number of students coming yet but we will know soon. We are anticipating at least 50 students this year!
- September 30th-October 3rd - CCA will be hosting 42 high school girls for a short three day stay. These young ladies will be performing for CCA students and will stay through the weekend. We are asking that host families would house two girls at each home. There will be a small stipend provided for each host family.
Being a host is a great way to share Jesus! Check out this video to see what others say about their experience.

Effortless Fundraising
CCA has partnered with Fred Meyer and AmazonSmile in an opportunity to raise money. For Fred Meyer customers, it is as easy as linking your rewards card. For Amazon.com shoppers, all of the same products, prices, and service you are accustomed to are accessible through AmazonSmile, which donates 0.5% of each purchase to CCA. By taking a few simple steps you may aide in the raising of funds. For more information about the necessary steps, see our flyer.
