Last week, Maximus was our only student on campus, and what a special time it was! With focused one-on-one instruction, he dedicated himself to his reading practice and did an amazing job! ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ‘ His hard work and determination truly stood out.


One of the sweetest moments was seeing Maximus cuddled up with his favorite stuffed toy, Sparkie, while reading. ๐Ÿงธ๐Ÿ“š It was a heartwarming sightโ€”proving that the best reading buddies come in all shapes and sizes!


But it wasnโ€™t all just academicsโ€”Maximus also enjoyed some fun playtime with his dad and Danial! โšฝ๐Ÿ€ From interactive learning to friendly games, this week was filled with laughter, learning, and unforgettable moments.


A big shoutout to Maximus for making the most of his time at CLAS last week! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ’™

We are thrilled to introduce a fun and motivating reward system to encourage our students to meet their academic goals!


As we approach the third quarter milestone, students who complete 75% of their CCO by March 26 will earn CLAS Play Money ๐Ÿ’ฐโ€”a special currency they can use for exciting privileges!


๐ŸŽ‰ What Can Students Do with Their Play Money?

  • Purchase a day of working on their passion (e.g., writing their book with one-on-one support, dedicating time to their special project).
  • Buy items at the CLAS Store ๐Ÿ›๏ธ.
  • Participate in an auction ๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ on a special celebration day after the third quarter!


To make this experience even more exciting, we invite parents to donate items for the auction or CLAS Store. We need your ideas and support! If you have gently used toys, books, or items that your child no longer needs but other students may enjoy, we would love to include them.


Letโ€™s work together to make this a rewarding and joyful experience for our students! Thank you for your support and generosity.

CLAS Virtue of the Week: Initiative- Philippians 2:4, NIV CLAS Virtue of the Week: Initiative- Philippians 2:4, NIV

zoom_out_map

This week at CLAS, we are focusing on the virtue of Initiative. Through Bible stories like Nehemiah rebuilding the wall, Baby Moses being hidden, and Jesus feeding the 5,000, our students are learning that initiative means recognizing a need and taking actionโ€”without waiting for someone else to do it.


We encourage you to continue the conversation at home! Ask your child:

  • Whatโ€™s something you see that needs to be done at home? How can you take action?
  • How can we show initiative in helping others, just like Jesus and His disciples did?
  • What happens when we do what we can and trust God to do the rest?


By discussing these ideas together, we can help our children develop a heart of responsibility, service, and faith. Letโ€™s guide them in seeing opportunities to help and being bold in their actions, just as Christ teaches us.

๐ŸŒ Exciting Updates to Our CLAS Website! ๐ŸŒ ๐ŸŒ Exciting Updates to Our CLAS Website! ๐ŸŒ

๐Ÿ“ข We Need Your Help!
One way you can support CLAS is by leaving a Facebook review โญ about your experience with our school. Your feedback will not only help others learn about our unique community but also strengthen our reputation as we move forward in the accreditation process.
