International Student Program Host Family Opportunity
- 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.

One of our Middle School families is in need of help...Boe Richards is a fighter and one of the strongest women we know! At only 43 years old, Boe is a mother of two wonderful children with her first grandchild on the way. Boe was diagnosed in August 2013 with brain cancer. As of July this year, we have learned she has two tumors, one is stage 2 and the other stage 4. At this point, she requires 24/7 care and now that some family members have gone back to work and college, they are having difficulty getting the assistance they need. Boe's mom, Carol, is there, but is unable to lift and assist Boe. Would you prayerfully consider signing up to help? The link will take you to a sign-up sheet with more information. If you have any questions, please contact Mary Pesacreta. Thank you in advance! |

Parents... please note, that while we really do love having your children here with us during the school day, per the CCA handbook:
A student remaining on campus after carpool (including siblings of students involved in sports) must attend the extended care program. The cost of this care is $6.00/hour, per child, with a minimum charge of 1 hour/per child. After the first hour, fees will be accrued in 15 minute increments per child. Parents who do not pick up their children from the program by 6:00 pm will be charged $1.00 per minute per child for every minute they are late.
The Elementary School Staff truly does appreciate you being prompt when picking up your student!
